You can configure the system not to accept mail for that user, something like: To:someuser@domain.com 550 Email to someuser has been disabled ...in /etc/mail/access. You could set up a redirect alias and point mail for them to some other location, or even redirect mail for that user to /dev/null-- or via a REJECT or DISCARD entry in the access map. -- -Chuck
