The point is that you would prefer postmasters and administrators be given a neutered tool, because of your belief that an excessive number of folks that are running some exim mailservers are incompetent, and have come up with a config that violates RFCs. Geeze - if you feel that strongly about it, just block the idiots that are blocking bounces. Problem solved. Whitelist as needed. That's what I do, after I send them a "fix or $NUM_MAILBOXES will no longer accept your smtp traffic" email. If the sender cares, they will fix thier config. If they don't care, I don't want their traffic. I'd prefer that the tools I use, and their implementation, not be intentionally 'dulled' or obfuscated because of your discomfiture. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lugo [EMAIL PROTECTED] LC Unit #260 TINLC Have you hugged your firewall today?
