Hello Kirill,

Backscatter robot. You send mail to foo...@example.com. example.com
rejects your mail with "Over quota" or "on vacation". You receive this
message and send "we said NO REPLY!". Example.com sends "over quota"
again....

Nonsense. You REJECT the message and the remote server will (if configured properly) not attempt further delivery.

A no-reply address is very common; this is why your earlier comment about this needing to be read doesn't make much sense. The RFC lists clearly which addresses should go to a mailbox read periodically by a human being; "noreply" is not one of them.

Of course, proper list or mass-mailing management consists of sending null senders in the first place, and/or utilizing VERP in outgoing email.

In the OP's case, it is trivially solved with a check_recipient_access map consisting of nothing but

    nore...@example.com     REJECT We said no!

At no point does the postfix system send a MESSAGE in response to delivery attempts to this address - instead, it will reject the recipient.

If the remote system was a gateway that accepted the bounce for delivery, it was most likely misconfigured.
