Bug#598555: exim4: local_sender_blacklist no longer works

[Mark Hedges]

Package: exim4
Version: 4.69-9
Severity: normal


It seems like local_sender_blacklist has stopped working.
For testing, I typed one address into /etc/exim4/local_sender_blacklist
for an account on another server, and restarted exim4.  It does
not block the mail.  I have nothing in the exceptions or
whitelist files.
