I my postmaster mailbox I get a lot of trash from those of
our customers that use an MTA which identifies itself as:
Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9) and
Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0).
That really a pain.
How can I prevent those messages from ending up as double
bounces in my postmaster mailbox? They are totally useless,
even for spammer tracing, because the received lines are
missing.
Can I make qmail block them?
I think the blocking criteria might be:
If return-path is empty and from is [EMAIL PROTECTED], drop it.
What would you do / what are you doing?
Do you know the product so I can tell the customers how to fix
their systems?
Here is a typical message that ends up as a double bounce. In this
case the bogus sender is a spammer. It could also originate from
a non-spammer, and sometimes it is a positive delivery notification
like "Your message was delivered to the following recipeint(s):":
