Setup:
defaulthost == ais.cx
.../ais.cx/.qmail-default == "| .../vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
vpopmail-4.8.x
sqwebmail-0.37 or so
Whenever an sqwebmail user (from any of our hosted domains, not just that
one) enters an e-mail address without a domain, it gets rewritten by
qmail-inject to add our domain (ais.cx, from defaulthost). Typically, the
resulting address doesn't exist at our domain, so the default action for
vdelivermail gets invoked. This causes people's (often fairly juicy) e-mail
to get sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] We like having a catchall for people actually
trying to write to ais.cx (for typos and whatnot), but don't like getting
other people's mail (since it's incredibly deceptive to them).
I've tried setting default{host,domain} to zero-byte files, but qmail-inject
still tacks on an ``@.'' to the message before trying to send it, which
bounces. Unfortunately, the bounce isn't entirely accurate from the user's
perspective, since *they* weren't trying to write to <C00LD00D@.>... :)
Is there a solution that would allow us to keep the catchall, but only if
it's for [EMAIL PROTECTED], and not other domains, and to make the bounce a
little more accurately descriptive?
