Exim 4.63 #1 built 28-Apr-2011 07:10:51 (on Centos 5.10) matches the
majority of host names in a file, except one persistent spammer.
EXDIR/hosts.spammer contains, inter alia,
*charter.com
*mo.charter.com
Exim fails to match a persistent nuisance
71-14-255-2.static.stls.mo.charter.com
when the condition is
hosts = EXDIR/hosts.spammer
I have checked the spelling; retyped the host name but Exim can not
match it. The routine functions successfully with other host names.
Other anti-spam checks reject the mail delivery attempts.
I wondered whether there were unprintable characters in the DNS entry
for host name.
