I have every right in the world to address an envelope to a fake person at a street address and the US Postal Service by Federal law has to deliver it if it has proper postage and is not other wise suspecious. Now, if I do it again and again and again and the US Postal Service knows this, they can prohibit me from doing that. If you can be sure that they are coming from a known IP address or non-forged domain, and there is no legit coming from that, you can block it at the router or firewall. > Also, I notice a lot of spam coming through still.

You can also do it manually.
