That's why in point 1, I said the source is trusted. Basically, another app (on a different server) which generates the mails, and then forwards them to exim. As for virtual users, I asked the manager about using those at the start, but he doesn't like the idea because they're not the way that exim normally runs, so we'd probably have to use some weird non-standard exim config. Could you point me to docs where I can read more about virtual users? Most of the Google results are for Virtual Domains, or for Exim in combination with other software.
