Well, you can just throw the message away by putting nothing but comments in a .qmail file. You could then use the doublebounceto and doublebouncehost control files to send double bounces to that .qmail file.

removing msg for old users
My problem is: My mail server receives mail for old users/rcpt I want delete these msg and no forward to postmaster or other. I have created a .qmail file in ~alias (e.g. .qmail-robert - with "robert" old user ). How can I specify the delete operation in .qmail file?
