I agree with the people replying here that accepting the message and then
discarding it quietly is the right approach and the mail-abuse tester
program is not written correctly, but as a hack to fix it for now, did you
try the patch to add regexp to the badmailfrom system? it's somewhere on
the qmail.org site. if it accepts something like ".*%.*@.*" you should be
ok I suppose.
