Thanks for the info, but is it possible to reject mail if the user doesn't exist in the mail server ? The sender always uses yahoo and hotmail. I cannot reject mail from those domains because people here receive messages from there (newspaper business you know). Anyway I'm going to check postfix.
TIA

You can use the access database to block certain senders. But that only works if the sender is the same. Then there are some programs that can be configured to throw away mail based on subject line (I think libmilter, included in the distribution could be used to do this), you might want to check that out. And you can of course just receive it (use virtusertable to map incoming mail from the non-existing account to a real one), check out the header and inform the ISP of the abuse. If you're lucky, by 2003 they might undertake some action ;-) cheers Stefan
