If you want to stop virus email from entering your mail system, you should shut down your mail system.

You may try using a pre-qmailscanner blacklist, such as badmailfrom/badmailto, to block specific senders and recipient addresses. The mailmat patch, or the newer version of the same, lets you use a set of patterns for this task, instead. If you have a fairly constant set of invalid accounts receiving mail, the badmailto should work fairly well for you. If you have a small set of valid recipients, perhaps a whitelist would be best. --- david raistrick [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.expita.com/nomime.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
