           Summary: h_from empty if angle brackets not closed
           Product: Exim
           Version: 4.69
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: security
          Priority: critical
         Component: ACLs
        AssignedTo: nigel@...
        ReportedBy: fperillo@...
         QAContact: fperillo@...
                CC: exim-dev@...


Spammers are sending messages with "From:" or "To:" tags in the body w/o
closing the angle bracket, hence the h_from is apparently not parsed correctly
and the h_from exim variable is not assigned, actually disabling acl written
for the h_from sanitization.

An header excerpt from an "offending" message:

Could also the EOL be used to terminate the variables ?)
