No, it seems like a dial-in user of an ISP. I have no idea who this could
be. What is the (helo=d4t2e9) part?

Anyway, my exim config says:

host_accept_relay = localhost

so it seems Exim does not relay for anyone except localhost (which in this
case means mydomain.com)

Specific IP blocks don't work on dial-in spam, while procmail does its job
on per-user basis, but a system-wide solution would be better. Am I wrong?
