The mail log says that the mail gets delivered but i canīt find it anywhere.
Courier stores mail in a clever queue mechanism and may hold it there for a while. Just run `mailq` to check.
If it's not there nor in user's box, chances are it was forwarded (depending on DNS MX and related settings) or gone for good.
I also wonder if there are any easy way to make the server delete all incoming email for non-existent users. As you know some spammers email non-existent users with a bogus "from header"
add a "badfrom" line to your bofh file, for syntax see http://www.courier-mta.org/courier.html
I would hate to have that happen to me.
Unfortunately, most anti-spam methods require someone actually does "spam-surfing" to check any overworked names. Hmmm... perhaps Peter was asking how to avoid getting bogus DSN, not how to convert them into a hot names list, UH? Some mechanism could catch messages with multiple failures and check for repeated "from" header. Some other mechanism should check the logs and discard unused bofh entries after some time. Anybody implemented anything like this?
