Sometimes the SMTP Inbound Controls fail. Specifically, I have noticed the “Verify that local domain recipients exists…” setting completely ignored. For example, today I received an email intended for this person:
SENDTO field = ““Badger” uzstoskhx@earthlink.net”
FROM field = ““Belinda” mkoch69@kennzeichen.net”
The server does not allow relay.
The email was not masked as being from me so it was not an email that failed its target and was returned to me.
How did the server end up delivering this email to me?
