Can you post your entire rcpt acl, and the list of relay hosts?
For reference, here's mine:
hostlist relay_hosts = 199.104.112.184/29 : \
127.0.0.1 : \
::::1
hostlist auth_relay_hosts = *
acl_check_rcpt:
# Exim 3 had no checking on -bs messages, so for compatibility
# we accept if the source is local SMTP (i.e. not over TCP/IP).
# We do this by testing for an empty sending host field.
accept hosts = :
set acl_m0 = do-not-scan
deny message = you villainous scum
hosts = !/etc/exim4/whitelist_ips:/etc/exim4/blacklist_ips
deny message = host is listed in $dnslist_domain
dnslists = sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org
deny senders = /etc/exim4/blacklist_domains
deny message = unrouteable sender
!verify = sender
deny message = unrouteable address
!verify = recipient
deny !acl = acl_friends
warn message = X-outside-us: 1
hosts =
!/etc/exim4/whitelist_ips:/etc/exim4/greylist_outside_us
warn message = X-no-spam-checking: 1
hosts = /etc/exim4/whitelist_nospam
set acl_m0 = do-not-scan
accept hosts = +relay_hosts
accept domains = +local_domains
accept hosts = +auth_relay_hosts
endpass
message = authentication required
authenticated = *
deny message = relay not permitted
I'm still not 100% sure what the "endpass" directive does. The exim 3
upgrade script tossed it in there for me.
