Hi Chris,
 
Refusing null senders actually breaks your email server according to thr RFCs. I know it's nice to be able to block all the false returns caused by forging viruses, but doing so in this manner also blocks legitimate server responces.
 
rfc-ignorant.org is actually a good source of education.information on this and other email standards.

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Not supporting null originator Problem

Hi all... having a problem with a user sending to albertus.edu.  Getting following error from their server:

Unknown user: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
RCPT TO generated following response:
554 Service unavailable; Sender address [EMAIL PROTECTED] blocked
using dsn.rfc-ignorant.org; Not supporting null originator (DSN)
1) Is this a result of my "0 Null sender maximum tries"? Should I set this too 1 or too much spam threat?
2) Does this make me RFC Ignorant :-)
3) Should they really be blocking this email on such a flimsy test?
 
Thanks for your thoughts.
