With the SMTP Proxy how do I deal with incoming mail to "dud" internal addresses ? We seem to get a lot of spam addressed to junk addresses at our domain, ie dlkshf@micromine.com.au
The SMTP server tries to send them back to source "No person with that name here" but coz it's spam and the accounts been shutdown/faked the mail bounces back to ASL and sits in the queue, I can rack up 100+ of these over a weekend.
What is the best way of automagically dealing with mail like this ?
Attached is a sample below.
