It seems that if the sender is <> Exim always delivers it to the inbox, regardless of the how it was classified. Apparently this is because mailservers sending notification of undeliverable mail, identify themselves in this way (for some reason which appears a bit daft to me)
The reason the SMTP standard requires this is ensure that a delivery status notice does not generate another delivery status notice.
and therefore, everything from <> is automatically delivered to the inbox.
That's the daft part! That's not logical at all. Apply the spam score the same as for any other message, if you can. Joseph Brennan Lead Email Systems Engineer Columbia University Information Technology
