Same. In fact, if anyone wants it, I regularly update a list which is mostly intended to help out my customers that receive a lot of fake email signups on blogs, forums, etc. Feel free to take from it: https://github.com/mxroute/da_server_updates/blob/master/exim/spam_recipients

The subject says it all.

We’ve got users (who doesn’t?) who fat-finger gmail.com to
gmail.co – apparently A LOT.

The domain gmail.co seems to be an anti-squat domain, and on HTTP it
throws a 404 – as expected. (Although they could have redirected
to gmail.com – whatever).

But, there’s no MX, so SMTP falls back to the A, and mail sits in
our outbound queues until it expires, etc.

Any idea who/how to suggest to Google that a null MX would be
appreciated?

I prefer to do these things on my own, then I can be sure they get
done in a reasonable timeframe.

Our /etc/postfix/transport map has about 700 error entries for
fat-finger domains. For many of them, it would be difficult and
time-consuming to find the actual domain owners, convince them to add
an MX record, etc. On the other hand, adding a new entry is a matter
of 10-15 seconds. Guess which option I prefer.

Cheers,
Hans-Martin
