I have Qmail + Vpopmail + Qmail Scanner + SpamAssassin + ClamAV installed and 
all is functioning.

However my qmail queue is filled with hundreds of double bounced messages. So 
I no longer bounce the incoming messages if the recipient does not exist on 
the system, I just delete it. This solves the queue problem. But the problem 
I have now is that all the bogus messages coming in get spam and virus 
checked before the email gets deleted... A waste of valuable resources.


I have tried googleing for some time to no avail...

Does anyone know if it is possible, to only scan the valid incoming emails.

Example process of the way I would like it to work.

1. Incoming message is received.
2. If incoming message is determined invalid due to the recipient does not 
exist, the message is immediately deleted. If the recipient exists goto the 
next step.
3. Spam and virus check.
4. Deliver the message.

--Thanks in advance
