Seems to me that our mail server is wasting alot of CPU and quarantine disk space scanning email messages for unknown users. Is there a patch that would bounce messages to unknown recipients before the mail reached qmail-scanner? We have one domain that suffered a dictionary attack while they had a global catch-all enabled and now gets 50,000 emails a day to unvalid users.


Not sure if any of these are compatible with vPopMail:
