Uncaught Python 2.3.4 Exception

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I have reported the following problem to the tmda-users list, but did
not get any answers. Since I suspect that this can't be answered with 
some configuration changes, I would appreciate your help.

Thank you, AG

P.S. I am not currently subscribed to the tmda-worker list, so a direct
	cc would be appreciated.

The following envelope sender will cause a Python Exception:
	"St0ckAlertbijfc@"@gmail.com
as follows:
  IOError: failure delivering message to command "('/usr/sbin/sendmail', 
    '-i', '-f', 'ganz+confirm', '--', '"St0ckAlertbijfc@"@gmail.com')" 
    (command "( '/usr/sbin/sendmail', '-i', '-f', 'ganz+confirm', '--', 
    '"St0ckAlertbijfc@"@gmail.com')" exited 67  ())

Since this is an attempt for getting a confirmation from a spammer, this 
particular case isn't very important, and I can well understand that 
sendmail doesn't like such a sender. However, in a more generic way it
would be nice, if this could be handled without getting an exception.

My question is, is there a way to catch such an address before the sendmail 
call fails, such that it could be reported in a better way than in the debug 
log, which in my understanding is supposed to report things that are poorly 
configured.
