***** You have a -b here that you don't want. *****

But Chad wants a message sent to the postmaster.
It appears that the only option he has found that sends to postmaster -b is not satisfactory because it also sends to sender and this is likely to have been spoofed.


I also would like a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED](we only get 500 messages a day total) but I don't want to send to spoofed addresses as well I have not found this option either. Maybe I need glasses. ;-)

Unfortunately the documentation is not very clear. Here's my understanding:


no flags: postmaster and recipient get warnings
--quiet:  nobody gets a warning
--postmaster-only: only postmaster gets a warning
--bounce: sender and postmaster get warnings

The OP was using --postmaster-only AND --bounce.  The --bounce was
causing warnings to go back to the sender, which is why Nigel and I
are saying to remove the -b.

Hope it's finally clear.
