Hello list,

I have a strange problem, when I send a mail to a mail address with an "!" in 
the localpart, I got a "relay access denied", but the character is allowed in 
the RFC:

Jul  3 09:46:28 mta postfix/smtpd[6229]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from 
fmmailgate03.web.de[217.72.192.234]: 554 5.7.1 <abc!d...@abc.de>: Relay access 
denied; from=<a...@web.de> to=<abc!d...@abc.de> proto=ESMTP 
helo=<fmmailgate03.web.de>
Jul  3 09:46:28 mta postfix/smtpd[6229]: disconnect from 
fmmailgate03.web.de[217.72.192.234]

The server is a spamfilter only forwarding to internal servers and other 
special characters like "|" work fine.

Does the exclamation mark have a special meaning? If there is a problem with 
the character I would expect something like "Bad recipient address syntax".

Is there anything I could do to receive these mails?


Thank you,
Daniel
