:) We do not have nobody.
Let me explain again since there is a misunderstanding here. If I send you an email and make my outlook Reply address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] domain.com you will get the email. Right? I can change my email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Naturally that email does not exist. All I say is Imail should know its own database and this query should be much faster than doing the IP4R tests. So before it does anything - if it receives an email from a domain that is local to it - IMail has to make sure that email exists. Otherwise reject the email. This has nothing to do with relaying or how you setup IMail.

Kami, if you remove the "nobody" alias from your hosted domains, then IMail will simply refuse to accept delivery for non-existent users with a "550 no such user" and neither IMail nor Declude will have to do any processing for these messages.

Hi; Is there any reason for IMail not to accept emails from Users that do not exist when it knows all users in a domain? We are getting tons of spam that get blocked later from made up users in our various domains. E.g.: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I understand spammers try to do this hoping that we have whitelisted our own domain but when this user does not exist shouldn't IMail simply not accept email from this address? This will save so much processing time later..
