The use of a status of 4xx in conjunction with an extended status of 5.something seems to be absurd, no? > This is a problem with what you're sending in the MAIL FROM:<> SMTP > command, and is dependent on the site policy of the system you are > connecting to.

Fair comment, but I can't believe that applying one's normal retry strategy in response to the 4xx status is going to be useful. As such, I'd tend to rate this response as a rogue. The status they returned *should* have been 5xx, in my view. cheers -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
