We recently found that we could no longer use Exim's sender callout 
verification on our MX because people here rely on various web services 
etc. that send auto-generated messages "from" addresses with incorrect 
local parts (and identifying all of them so that exceptions could be 
made also seemed difficult.) But, then I thought that I might at least 
add a warning if the callout fails, so the check_recipient ACL now has:

  require verify = sender
  warn    !verify = sender/callout=defer_ok
      message = X-Sender-Warning: The email setup at 
$sender_address_domain does not accept messages to $sender_address

Questions:

   1. Does this look correct to you? (Note that I still want to reject
      messages if the domain part is incorrect, hence the first test.)
   2. What header would you use for this warning?
