Hi Jeremy,

how do you see that this isn't the original spam-mail? Normally exim would have add some content to the NDR, isn't it?

Regards
Thomas

The gateway itself does currently no content checking and is just forwarding any message as long the recipient is valid. However the destination server might reject some messages based on it’s own spam filter. For most messages that works fine, that means that in case the destination server rejects a message, exim creates a NDR to the sender and drops the message.

This isn't the original spam mail, it is the NDR. But the NDR is
undeliverable because the spammer faked an envelope-from. So
after trying to deliver and finding that out, it gets frozen.
