What is the "recommended" way to handle Mailer Daemon messages? The sheer amount of spam coming into the system is unbelievable.. And, of course, it comes to users that don't exist.
So, that mail bounces. It attempts to return it to the sender (which usually doesn't exist either), and fails. So it queues for a few days and then sends me (the admin) and error that the bounce bounced...
Is there a way to just ignore these? I thought I could set the .qmail-mailer-daemon alias to "#" and it would basically route them to the void, but I want to be sure of myself...
Thanks,
Try the chkuser.patch listed on http://shupp.org (fitted to the 0.5 toaster patch). It checks to make sure the user exists before delivering the message.
