Why do you have a catchall? If you didn't, then email to nonvalid addresses would be rejected by your domain's mail server, and you'd never have to see it. I never quite understood why so many web hosting companies configure their default configurations with a catchall. In the world before spam, that wasn't a bad idea, but we've been living in the spam world for a lot more than 5 years, so it seems to me to make no sense at all to use catchalls any longer. -- David W.
