It is running sendmail 8.13.3 = and it works fine, except for all the spam that is being sent to it to = bad email addresses. I have aliased the root account to an email group = on another server so that someone reads the root mail. The problem is = that all the mail that spammers are sending to address that do not exist = get bounced and the root account a notification (I believe it is the = postmaster alias which is aliased to root). Is there any way to not = have these notifications sent out. They are filling up the mail boxes. = I just want the return to sender, but not to the root / postmaster as = well. I have tried using the confCOPY_ERRORS_TO in my .mc file, but = that just sends it to an additional account as well. =20 Any help would be greatly appreciated. =20 Thanks Noah Davidson
