Its not a sender-verify like that. I THINK all it does is make sure the sending email adresses domain has an mx record. I did not add this to my exim config its just been there for years. --- # Deny unless sender address can be verified: # This statement requires the sender address to be verified before any # subsequent ACL statement can be used. If verification fails, the incoming # recipient address is refused. Verification consists of trying to route the # address, to see if a bounce message could be delivered to it. In the case of # remote addresses, basic verification checks only the domain. require verify = sender --- Does anyone else have this in the exim.conf? This 4.6 Exim.
