Severity: wishlist
Dear BTS Maintainers,
I recently stumbled over https://bugs.debian.org/766807 where the
original reporter's mail has the following From- and Envelope-From
header:
From: tester <[email protected]>
Received: from c-24-15-20-227.hsd1.il.comcast.net ([24.15.20.227] helo=wheezy.localdomain)
by buxtehude.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 4.80)
(envelope-from <[email protected]>)
id 1XiBeR-0005JZ-Nw
for [email protected]; Sun, 26 Oct 2014 00:25:44 +0000
I'm not sure if this was on purpose, for trolling or just a badly
misconfigured MUA and MTA, but IMHO the bug tracking system should
reject such mails generally.
For a list of domains to reject see
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2606#section-3
Regards, Axel
