Thanks Theo, that is good information. And, I appologize, I didn't really mean "all system accounts." The problem is those creative spammers are beginning to send spam to users like uucp@rankin-bertin.com, etc... What I am looking for is a way to have postfix reject mail sent to these accounts with 550. My current setup is this:
As Theo already said, if you don't need an address, then don't use it. If it's an address for internal use only then protect it by rejecting all external/undesired clients for that address.
How are you guys handling/rejecting mail sent to these type of systmem accounts? I like Per's pcre approach, that at least cuts down on typing. Is this the right approach for what it is I'm trying to do??
Delete the alias if you don't need it (or comment it if you aren't sure) or protect it with a recipient check or restriction class. Sandy -- List replies only please! Please address PMs to: news-reply2 (@) japantest (.) homelinux (.) com
