Yes, I do the same. But many come in when I am asleep so I can't get
them very fast. That is why I want to get a rule to do this for me.

I have discovered that if I'm going to do a lot of computer work,
and I have my mail retrieval set to 1 minute increments, and I am
fast on the trigger with the bounce button, I can often
successfully bounce without getting a Returned Mail receipt.
The reason I believe it works this way is that the spammers have
their recipient list ready to go, set up a Yahoo email (most often
anyhow), insert all the victim addresses, send, and delete their
own address (or are deleted by default by Yahoo after being
identified as a spammer due to all the traffic they just sent out).
Basically I am bouncing before the spammer gets a chance to
disconnect their address. If I have it set for 5 minutes, not a
chance. Of course, like someone previously, they may ignore the
bounces anyhow.... and so it may just be an exercise in futility.
I Dunno...
