I've seen no indications of the bounces going to the list, only to the sender (i.e. I posted 4 messages to freebsd-questions@ and got back 4 bounces; I didn't get bounces that seemed related to anyone else's posts). However, it does look as if someone needs to teach that mailserver about the Errors-To: header. > Thoroughly recommend using relaydb(1) to teach your mail system > where you've received spam from in the past and make sure it > doesn't happen again ... I let my uucp(!) upstream's Red Condor spam filter deal with that sort of problem :) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
