SPAM / BOUNCES
« on: November 23, 2005, 10:25:00 AM »
Hi,

I get about 1000 emails a day that begin:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at blablabla.com.
I tried to deliver a bounce message to this address, but the bounce bounced!

For a long time now I have been logging in via webmail and doing a search/delete on anything with 'failure message' in the subject.

How would the professionals tackle this issue?

thanks,
seabro

You are making it hard on yourself !

A simple search on doublebounce would have found the answer so I suggest searching first next time you have a problem.
Try it.

There is a HOWTO and a rpm contrib, take your pick.

Thanks Ray.  I have searched but i guess 'doublebounce' is the key.

Ray,

The rpm is installed now.

You have been very helpful and I am grateful.

You have saved me about an hour a day!

Keep up the good work.
