Brandon,
Thank you for the well balanced response. That makes perfect sense.
"I'm sure there's improvements that could be made, but priorities are what
they are."
Hmm, the obvious choice would be an unsub link in the message, but that
would break DKIM. I guess one could add it as a header, but that will
seriously limit who would see it
Probably the best would be a periodic reminder of the forward with the undo
link similar to what happens in the initial
Brandon,
Yes, I could setup a rule at our edge servers to trash the mail or bounce
it. I was just wondering if there's some other way to break a google
forward that I wasn't aware of. It is being used in an abusive way, the
stuff we receive via that forward seems deliberate. I was hoping there

I can respect that.
I wonder if it would be possible to implement a conditional rejection
that matches details of the problematic message.

I'm confused, I thought you were saying that a gmail account was
autoforwarding mail to your postmaster@ address (ie, with +caf_ in
envelope sender).
In which case, you can set up a specific block for mail from that caf
address to your postmaster address.
With Google Workspace, you can use a

Well, you surely understand that to be a (correct ethical) choice,
If you can still find the original authorization email (yes, I know - probably
unlikely depending on age of setup), there's a link to break it.

The worse thing is with forwarding of non-geographic phone numbers...
(0345,etc, in the UK). We've had people ring us when they were trying to
get through to the tax office, ambulance service (not 999), etc, etc. It's
pretty much impossible to fix that. The dialer is calling the correct
Yup, I do have a way to filter. I just thought it was an interesting
problem that the recipient of a systematic forward is not able to stop the
forwarding of the mail.

If it's not too many who could have done it, ask them, have them fess up,
and let the one who did it repair it.
Otherwise, blocking the gmail address on mail ingress is probably the
simplest solution.

Im not talking if you know the address.
Im talking if the address is present somewhere in the forwarded email.
That’s a fundamental difference, because if you know the address, you cannot do
so much to it, but if its present in the actual mail somehow (header, etc) you
can write a filter to
Yes I know the address @gmail the messages are being sent to. I do not
control that gmail inbox though.

Does the MAIL FROM (Sender header) contain the gmail address?
Does the MIME From contain the gmail address?
Check the headers if the gmail address is SOMEWHERE there.
Then you could put a rule to block such mails.

At some point someone set up a gmail address which forwards automatically
to our postmaster address. Yes I realize someone had to have clicked
something to allow this to happen (multiple people monitor the box). But I
cannot undo it. I do not control the original mailbox the mail is being
