I just upgraded to exim 4.60 from 4.42 and I notice that I am getting the following in my msglog folder for some hosts (I have changed the IP's and hostname of the host in this message for security reasons)...
--------------------------------------------------------------- 2006-03-21 00:28:49 Remote host email.somehost.com [12.12.12.12] closed connection in response to MAIL FROM:<"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"@ohwy.com> SIZE=1746 2006-03-21 00:28:49 [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp defer (-18): Remote host email.somehost.com [12.12.12.12] closed connection in response to MAIL FROM:<"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"@ohwy.com> SIZE=1746 --------------------------------------------------------------- I am using SMTP AUTH with plaintext USER authentication. Username is [EMAIL PROTECTED] In exim 4.42, the MAIL FROM would be "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". Now it has changed to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"@ohwy.com. I see in the doc/ChangeLog the following (line numbers noted): --------------------------------------------------------------- 1633 26. If the domain in control=submission is set empty, Exim assumes that the 1634 authenticated id is a complete email address when it generates From: or 1635 Sender: header lines. 1726 6. When Exim created an email address using the login of the caller as the 1727 local part (e.g. when creating a From: or Sender: header line), it was not 1728 quoting the local part when it contained special characters such as @. --------------------------------------------------------------- It seems to me that this could be related to my problem. Perhpas not. Under the SMTP AUTH, the full e-mail address is used as the username. How do I get it to use the "From" address in the MAIL FROM, or at least the username without modifying source?
