Hi,
I've just rolled out 4.93 from sources on Devuan - all working fine,
no problems.
In the process of checking everything is OK I noticed rejects of the
form :-
2020-02-23 16:35:12 1j5uDo-0002yt-Ig H=(NN.NN.NN.NN.example.org) \
[NN.NN.NN.NN] F=<User@???> rejected after DATA: \
header syntax (unqualified address not permitted: failing \
address in "From:" header is: =?utf-8?B?UTFENCODEDSTRING+?=): \
unqualified address not permitted: failing address in \
"From:" header is: =?utf-8?B?UTFENCODEDSTRING+?=
Excuse the obfuscation.
I've never noticed these before but when I look back in the logs they
have been happening forever and nobody's complained :-)
When I unpick the actual UTFENCOIDEDSTRING I get what I would call a
fairly normal address list of the form :-
NAME <user@???>.
These messages are occurring for other headers, e.g. Reply-To.
I had a look at RFC 2822 and NAME <user@???> does seem to be a
valid value for these headers.
Is exim just rejecting them because they are utf-8 encoded ?
I'm not bothered about them being rejected BTW - I can't find any
legitimate senders.
TTFN
