Your system does /NOT/ bounce the message, it just rejects it.

Than you have two options: 1) hacking qmail source to read a "dev-null" list and deliver all mails with sender address on this list to /dev/null (i.e. to drop the message) 2) manipulate all dot-qmail files that could be involved in a delivery and check if the message came from $BAD_SENDER. If so exit(99) from this check and no further delivery instructions in this dot-qmail file will be processed. Quite a lot of work to do, and you'd have to take care of all new created dot-qmail files in your setup. -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther COBOL: Crappy Obsolete Butthead Oriented Language.
