Thanks Aaron, that is a good point. But I'm running Exim and I think
I can code it so that it will not generate backscatter. I'll have to
design that in up front.
Interesting, how would you do that without dropping email (which is BAD).
Rick
If the recipient is bad then no one would have got the email anyway. But
there wouldn't a a notification to the sender. I suppose I could make it
smarter so that if the message is blessed in one of my many white lists
then I would do a bounce message, otherwise not.
OTOH, if someone is rarely down then the backscatter would probably be
minimal. This will probably be something to experiment with.
