--- Comment #2 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
This is working as documented :-

http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-access_control_lists.html#SECTaddressverification

section 46, details for "random":
"If the “random” check succeeds, the result is saved in a cache record, and
used
to force the current and subsequent callout checks to succeed without a
connection being made, until the cache record expires."


Basically, because the host accepts every local-part we cannot do a meaningful
recipient verify. So we define the verify check as passing, it being the best
we can do.
