+<h3><a name="SECTION0016210000000000000000">
+6.2.10 SMTP Callback</a>
+</h3>
+
+<p>
+Exim's SMTP callback feature is an even more powerful way to detect bogus
+sender addresses than normal sender verification. Unfortunately, lots of
+servers send bounce messages with a bogus address in the header, and there are
+plenty that send bounces with bogus envelope senders (even though they're
+supposed to just use an empty envelope sender for bounces).
+
+<p>
+In order to ensure that Mailman can disable/remove bouncing addresses, you
+generally want to receive bounces for Mailman lists, even if those bounces are
+themselves not bounceable. Thus, you might want to disable SMTP callback on
+bounce messages.
+
+<p>
+With Exim 4, you can accomplish this using something like the following in
+your <code>RCPT TO</code> ACL:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ # Accept bounces to lists even if callbacks or other checks would fail
+ warn message = X-WhitelistedRCPT-nohdrfromcallback: Yes
+ condition = \
+ ${if and {{match{$local_part}{(.*)-bounces\+.*}} \
+ {exists {MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$1/config.pck}}} \
+ {yes}{no}}
+ {yes}{no}}
+
+ accept condition = \
+ ${if and {{match{$local_part}{(.*)-bounces\+.*}} \
+ {exists {MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$1/config.pck}}} \
+ {yes}{no}}
+ {yes}{no}}
+
+ # Now, check sender address with SMTP callback.
+ deny !verify = sender/callout=90s
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+If you also do SMTP callbacks on header addresses, you'll want something like
+this in your <code>DATA</code> ACL:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ deny !condition = $header_X-WhitelistedRCPT-nohdrfromcallback:
+ !verify = header_sender/callout=90s
+</pre></div>
