No - sorry - why should someone search and find important informations in other package News?

The 'trick' with $local_part_data did not help and only leads to more other problems ...

But your hint rescues the day - thank you very much!

For other desperate exim users - add to the exim4.conf configuration:

   .ifdef _OPT_MAIN_ALLOW_INSECURE_TAINTED_DATA
    allow_insecure_tainted_data = yes
   .endif


When there is the time the other hints will be used for a correction to the new configuration challenge.
You already closed the bug that is only "new features" - thanks

Best regards
