I have this in exim.conf to restrict port 587.

hostlist relay_hosts = net-lsearch;/etc/virtual/pophosts : /etc/virtual/safe_ips : 127.0.0.1

...

deny
message = $sender_address is using port 587 without authentication
condition = ${if eq{$interface_port}{587} }
!authenticated = *
!hosts = +relay_hosts


I have IP's listed in pophosts from recently checking email that cannot use port 587 unless they authenticate. Why is that? They should be able to use 587 if they authenticate or popb4smtp.
