Uh - Shawn. . . think again about your rule. Besides taking a bit more effort to implement, your rule *still* requires the server to accept the mail.
And, no, as the admin you don't have to see all the nondeliverable stuff if you don't want to. Go to your IMS and take a look at the options for handling undeliverable mail. Go ahead and use your inbox-with-rules method, I'll stay with a sinkhole DL.

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.
