Never mind...I figured out a solution. I created an account called nobody@ then created a rule to filter to delete everything. This does not catch all invalid email addresses, just that which is addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi,

I would like to have an alias called [EMAIL PROTECTED] but only have it accept mail addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not any non-existent account. We have several applications that are sending out mail addressed from [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that bounces don't get delivered. It was pointed out that we should at least accept the bounces then delete them. But if I create a [EMAIL PROTECTED] alias and filter it to the bit bucket, I'm telling all those dictionary attackers that this is a valid account and legitimate mistakes will never get bounced.

So....can this "feature" of Imail be turned off and have nobody@ really mean only [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks!

BTW-Searched the archives and got 30+ pages of irrelevant hits. Sorry if this has been covered.
