Per the information on the link xMail already does what they request. "Configure your software to either reject messages during delivery or accept them permanently. Do not let your software make choices about delivery after it has accepted a message."
xMail will not accept messages for accounts that don't exist so it won't bounce messages after they have been accepted for delivery. The only exception would be if you are using xmail as a relay for an internal mail server and don't know what the accounts are at the time the message is accepted. Is this what you are doing? If so then maybe you should look into a filter that can validate delivery addresses before accepting a message. Has anyone created a filter that verifies incoming message delivery addresses using LDAP (for those that have it) or against a text file with a list of valid addresses? If anyone needs it I've been using a VB script that can create a text file list of addresses from an Exchange server/Active directory setup with a program called Mailscanner. But it could be the start of filter that can verify addresses against a text file list of valid e-mail addresses. And I'm sure for the case of an xmail server being the secondary MX for another someone could come up with a script to extract the list from the user file on the primary server and copy it over to the secondary.
