That is exactly what I did, but I'm still seeing emails on the Relay Server (Dead Letter Queue; Retry Queue) of those addresses I listed in the DL. My DL has no members because there is no physical mailbox. The only thing it has listed are SMTP addresses of users that no longer exist. Is there a way to log this Black-Hole (i.e., Exchange logging or eventviewer).
