You are right, it does not happen to often. The last such accident
happened yesterday and this was a little bit mysterious:
One of my users - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - intended to send an email to
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, but managed to enter the address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
So I got this:
> <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] for [EMAIL PROTECTED]

212.114.84.48 is *not* IP of our exim-machine but of the webserver.
The mysterious thing about this accident: no immediate bounce! I have to
wait for a regular non delivery notification.
