See, if we take that literally, that the only paht is the inbound
daemon, then that means that the mail has to have come in via SMTP.
Which means there *must* have been a CRLF.CRLF to end the mail (or NL.NL
if client is not using CRLF) because otherwise the mail doesn't finish
being accepted and so can't go into the spool.
If you submit with { sendmail <recipient> } and finish the body with
Ctrl-D Ctrl-D on a non-empty line, to get through a mail without a
trailing newline, then Exim repairs it.
Is Mailscanner doing any kind of "cleaning" of the content, or putting
stuff directly into Exim's queue?
