Correct. You would enter in SMTP commands and see what would happen to
the message. Exim applies all the same rules that it would for a normal
SMTP session. Here's your script:
EHLO issola.localdomain
MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
At that point it's going to puke on you and a few lines up you should
have your explanation as to why.
