--=-=-= Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Some jackass(es) sent a bunch of spam with forged From: headers referring to non-existent accounts on one of my domains. Consequently, I've been getting about 20,000 bounce messages per day to Erin@honeypot.net, Michelle@honeypot.net, etc. What's a good way to handle these? If I set up aliases to /dev/null, then I still have to receive an entire bounce message before silently discarding it (and even worse, have to watch the SpamAssassin milter process it before discarding it). If I don't set up any aliases for those users, then I get bounce messages from my own mailserver telling me that it couldn't deliver the original bounce messages to the fake usernames. Help! What I really want is something like: if ($user =3D=3D 'Erin' or $user =3D=3D 'Michelle') { send 550 to remote server do nothing else at all } Is this possible? Please save me from being pushed over the line, buying a paintball gun, and going hunting. =2D-=20 Kirk Strauser --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA+1Y+I5sRg+Y0CpvERArcDAJ9pEg3Nnia6ur8LlJ2e98ymI79wZACdHmvz bNMDx8DlL0PgWPUy0gFU1MY= =0iix -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
