That is an error from the site you are calling out to, the remote server is refusing to admit the validity of a localpart when the sender (to the remote server) is empty. That is broken as it's not going to be accepting bounces or other automated messages (like vacation messages, etc). Your choices are: 1. Try to get the other mail server fixed (good luck), or at least try to inform them they are broken. 2. Skip the callout for that site (and any others which are similarly broken). 3. Let the mail be rejected (as now). 4. Give up on offsite callouts (there are sites which report you as a spammer and blacklist you for doing just a single callout). Your best bets are 1 and 3, i.e.: tell them why there messages are not going to get delivered to your site, and let them work out if they want to fix it; or 1 and 2, Tell them they are broken (in the hope they fix it), and work around it. The path of least disruption is of course 4. > My callout option in ACL: > > deny > message = Unable to verify sender address > ($sender_address). > !verify = > sender/callout=4m,maxwait=4m,connect=30s,defer_ok > > I'm a little bit confused, because in exim log i dont see message > "Unable to verify sender address" but default(?) exim warning: "Sender > verify fail" > The message goes to the SMTP session, so in this case you should get something like: [...] MAIL FROM: <[email protected]> 550 Unable to verify sender address Bryn -- Network Administrator Parrs Wood High School -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
