thanks for answering...

at now, i've got a main-question: As it seems, they tried to download
and execute some code, so i need to make shure if they did succeed,
cause if so, i need to shutdown MailScanner imidiately.
But as you stated this should only work with exim ...
The next question is: Where did the *Received:1-31* lines come from?
They're looking a bit strange to me.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen
