The problem is that I can't go to sleep at night with it this way. As soon as one of these emails come in, it clogs the delivery queue for the domain its destined to.
1) smtprs accepts it and places it into \incoming 2) smtpds removes it from \incoming and places it into \domains and \holding 3) smtpds attempts to deliver the email, but it is refused by the next smtp server 4) smtpds will not go on to the next message for that domain until all 54 attempts fail (5 days) So, unless I find a way to filter these messages out, I have to keep watching the \domains directory and when I see one clogged with one of these messages, I have to stop smtpds, delete the corrupted rcp file in the \domains directory and the matching msg file in the \holding directory, then delete the domain.mri file if there is one in the \domains directory, then restart smtpds.
