It sounds to me like you may be looking for the wrong solution. The underlying problem you are trying to solve, if I understand correctly, is to reduce the amount of spam which is delivered into your mailbox. If so, identifying mail with <> empty envelope sender but not a bounce is going to make hardly any impact. Most spam is sent with forged sender addresses. So I think your efforts in this area will be wasted, and in any case, if you can identify bounces which qmail generates, you won't be able to identify bounces from xyz-random-mailer which is also in use on the Internet. Tools which you may find useful in reducing spam include: http://www.spamassassin.org/ http://tmda.net/ http://www.paulgraham.com/antispam.html http://www.paulgraham.com/filters.html Regards, Brian. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The debugger for complex code.
