The problem isn't mail sent to valid addresses, it's mail sent to
non-existant ones.  Normally they would be rejected by esmtpd, but when
you have a .courier-default alias they are accepted.  That's a problem
because spammers try to guess addresses, resulting in a lot of mail that
gets accepted and then bounced.  It'd be better to not accept it in the
first place, but for my needs, which requires a trivial rewriting of
recipient address, I can't see any alternative to a default alias.  I
wish there was an alternative, and I've asked, but no reply.  I suppose
there is no alternative since I expressly asked Sam and got no response.
