[Software] Exim4 - host lookup did not complete

#1 Post by npatterson »

Hi,
Lately some senders having been streaming junk emails at me up to 100 per connection. I altered the config. to 'drop' instead of 'deny' so that their connection gets dropped on the 1st bad recipient address. However, when host lookup does not complete, Exim4 defers the sender verify, and all the emails get processed as 'temporarily rejected RCPT' with 'Could not complete sender verify'.

I can't find anywhere in the config. files how to tell Exim to drop the connection instead of defer. Can anybody help me? Thanks.
