Yes, Those non-wget are now going to my apache-server instead of my lighttpd-server and if I modify that specific host I can do it there... Pound is not really the place for it...
I'm already pleased I'm rid of those browsers and robots for which this site was not intended. Most robots didn't respect my robots.txt although they read the file. Nice piece of software...

Sounds like you want to use mod_rewrite or a custom 404 page on your backend. Pound isn't looking at your docroot, so how would it know whats there or not?
