RE: disallowing certain remote recipients
Try the badrcptto patch or the spamcontrol patch, either of which will check against the envelope recipient and refuse to accept the message. Alternately, nullroute all of the MX's for the domain in question. Once again, these messages are not being received via qmail-smtpd. They are injected locally, so as far as I can tell, those patches will not help me. That's why I'm thinking qmail-send level. --joshua.

Use control/virtualdomains. Say aol.com and [EMAIL PROTECTED] ask you to not send them mail. Add the following to virtualdomains: aol.com:alias-devnull [EMAIL PROTECTED]:alias-devnull Then create ~alias/.qmail-devnull-default containing: # If you want to throw the mail away, or: |echo mail to this address is blocked locally by request; exit 100 If you want to generate a bounce message. -Dave
