           Summary: Exim does not require HELO/EHLO command
           Product: Exim
           Version: 4.69
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug
          Priority: low
         Component: Mail Receipt
        AssignedTo: nigel@???

RFC 2821 4.1.1.1:
"In any event, a client MUST issue HELO or EHLO before starting a mail
transaction."

Exim has no configuration option to require this without also trying to verify
the HELO name too.

src/smtp_in.c:
- if (helo_required && !helo_seen)
+ if (!helo_seen)
