I'm sorry for the confusion. I replied to say I was doing recipient verify
with callout but that was not correct. I then realised my mistake and sent out
a message to try to correct it.
The true situation is that my Exim box has a list of all the Exchange
recipients and verifies recipient addresses against that, rather that using
callout. On the basis of that it was accepting the messages with trailing dots
in the sender address. These were then being rejected by Exchange.
