If he means that thousands of spam were sent via his webmail program, then the normal condition is for them to be accepted unconditionally as webmail users are assumed legitimate, having had to log on. If that is the case, then it is the webmail configuration that needs looking at, and not Exim. > Depending on how the mail was initiated, it could be > > accept hosts = : But that is normally safe (I certainly have it) as you assume anything not sent by TCP/IP, i.e. originating from 127.0.0.1 is legitimate. If it isn't, then again, trying to configure Exim to fix the problem isn't, IMHO, the right way to go about it. -- This is Spain. We do things differently here!
