Try to set 2) .qmail-default to
| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox
This is the recommended behaviour and ensures that a) the mail is not processed
(and using resources) by any filter before being deleted and b) that senders
will be informed when sending mails to non-existing accounts.
In many European countries it is also an legal issues not to delete received
(E-)Mails: Mails accepted for delivery must be delivered (except when infected
by viruses).
The only disadvantage of this setting is that spammer could scan your domain
for valid/invalid addresses.

I have a few questions in answering your suggestions.
1) In qmailadmin there is such a thing as a "catchall", but I don't
have any "catchall" setup as such.
2) My .qmail-default covers this account and it says delete.
--.qmail-default--
| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' delete
--end--
3) You said don't do this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
But in the instructions it says to do exactly that. If I don't do
that, then what am I supposed to do?
Thanks

Hi all, I've installed the taps logging into my system and it's
obvious to me that we are getting a copy of every email that comes to
our server even though the recipient doesn't exist. I've viewed the
information on the toaster and inter7, but I don't see any way to
either block spam or log emails only for valid recipients.
Do you have it set to bounce/delete for your catchall, or is there an
account that is set as the catchall?
-- Current Taps Control File --
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
-- End--
Don't do this - it creates an endless loop for the tap - it taps everything
for mydomain.com, so when it sends the message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] it then
has to tap that, so that tap gets a tap, and then that tap gets a tap, etc.
