I guess the problem is the following:

$ host -t MX exim.org
exim.org mail is handled by 5 sesame.csx.cam.ac.uk.
$ telnet sesame.csx.cam.ac.uk 25
Trying 131.111.8.41...

Try using "use_postmaster" option for the callout. (See section 39.33 of
the exim specification.)


To the admin of sesame (if he/she's reading this list): I think it would
be better to reject bounce mails after DATA, so these callouts can
succeed. At least that's what I'm doing over here.
