Listmates,
Every mail I send gets bounced by wolfmanjack@localhost.linuxserver.site. Is there some way to nuke him?
you like nukes, David ?
Not from the fission sense unless used to provide power. However, when someone is causing numerous bounces from a misconfigured box, I do pause to reconsider...
The list should check on sign-up for a valid email address and refuse all default addresses like "iamanewbiepleaseshootmeintheheadfornotknowinghowtosetmydomain.site"
How this joker ever gained an account with return address of localhost.linuxserver.site is beyond me.
Most probably the mail was received by his ISP, then polled via fetchmail and fed to Postfix. If he misconfigured Postfix/some-MTA the mails are bouncing straight from his system (or his smarthost) to you. That is one of the reasons (aside from spammers grabbing addresses off the list archive) that I restrict mail reception to list addresses to the listserver. -- Sandy List replies only please!
