Hello *,

while playing with callouts (on 4.50), if found some anomalie (or I 
misunderstood
something).

We use callout for recipient verification.  For several reasons I do not
want to use the empty <> mail from for that test.  As written in the
specs there're the postmaster_mailfrom and use_postmaster:  

verify = recipient/[EMAIL PROTECTED],use_postmaster/defer_ok

The communications seems to be ok:

,-------
| SMTP Response: 220 debian.sachsengarage.de ESMTP Exim 4.50 Sat, 11 Jun 2005 
00:25:34 +0200
| SMTP Command: HELO pu.schlittermann.de
| SMTP Response: 250 debian.sachsengarage.de Hello pu.schlittermann.de 
[212.80.235.130]
| SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 OK
| SMTP Command: RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 Accepted
| SMTP Command: RSET
| SMTP Response: 250 Reset OK
| SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 OK
| SMTP Command: RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 Accepted
| SMTP Command: QUIT
| SMTP Response: 221 debian.sachsengarage.de closing connection

BUT now I was brave enough to add the 'random' test:

verify = recipient/[EMAIL PROTECTED],use_postmaster,random/defer_ok

| SMTP Command: HELO pu.schlittermann.de
| SMTP Response: 250 debian.sachsengarage.de Hello pu.schlittermann.de 
[212.80.235.130]
| SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 OK
| SMTP Command: RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 550 Unknown user
| SMTP Command: RSET

So far it's ok.
But now: It seems as if exim forgot that postmaster settings and tries
the address to be tested with emtpy mail_from:

| SMTP Response: 250 Reset OK
| SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<>
| SMTP Response: 250 OK
| SMTP Command: RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 Accepted
| SMTP Command: RSET
| SMTP Response: 250 Reset OK
| SMTP Command: MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 OK
| SMTP Command: RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
| SMTP Response: 250 Accepted
| SMTP Command: QUIT
| SMTP Response: 221 debian.sachsengarage.de closing connection

Bug or Feature?
Any hint is appreciated.
