As it should? And where is it written that Exchange should bounce mail? Your method sounds like an administrative nightmare to me. An acronym can be a word formed from the initial letters of a name, so DL is a legitimate acronym.

When I first lit upon the concept, I must say I >was quite startled by its simplicity. With respect, I must point out that technically, "DL" is not an acronym; rather it is simply two initials. An acronym is a word formed from initials. Otherwise, thanks for your voice of reason. I just recently explained a much better way of 'killing' those unwanted messages by way of a server based rule. As I mentioned making a DL forces Exchange to accept the messages as legitimate mail rather than bouncing them, as it should.
