There is a setting in the email area of the server-manager where you can configure the server so that whenever the server receives a message to an unknown user, it can be returned to the sender with an error message (recommended practice) or sent to your system administrator (as an administrative notice).

The best solution I have found is:

http://www.dungog.net/sme/files/dungog-mailblocking-1.0-4.noarch.rpm

which will allow you to block mail to the admin account as you seem to want to do.

I would like to know if the mailblocking contrib
would work for me if I use the DELEGATE EMAIL Server feature.

I currently use an SME server for filtering emails for spam and virus and then forward them to another email server. Now, I would like to add a new feature, filtering based in subject and TO / FROM email addresses.
