Courier will not accept mail for users that don't exist. So somewhere you have told it to accept ALL mail for this domain. That probably means that you have a .courier-default file in your aliasdir. Check in there and see. Read the "dot-courier" man page for an explanation of how this works. The other possibility is that you have defined the account "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" which is catch-all account. In that case courier will look for a .courier-default file in the $HOME directory of that account for instructions on what to do with mail for unknown users of this domain. The "makehosteddomains" man page will explain how this feature works.
