If you use qmail-scanner to tag the spam, then my extension to qmail-scanner may help you... it can be used to filter out spam for non-local accounts (where you can't use .qmail or procmail to process the mails)... it could be easily modified to fit your needs. http://www.blaser.cx/qmail-scanner/ > Problem 2: (related) > Is there a way to suppress creating "user doesn't exist" bounces if > an incoming message is identified as spam?

This solves the "user doesn't exist" double bounces, or better, it's not your problem anymore ;-) Regards, Matthias
