Dear Folks,
I have a sendmail question. I have an incoming mail server that
doesn't know the user names and forwards everything (after virus and spam
scan) to my production box - HP-UX 11.0, lightly patched. Sendmail is the
SMTP. I would like to make sure that there would be *no* responses to the
incoming mail addressed to "unknown" users, I'd like to just drop those
messages without a trace. The one option i see is to set LUSER-RELAY to
something that translates to /dev/null. Is tis a good idea? if it is, how
do i do it? tia, julius
