> Double bounces may well be an important indication of problems, <snip> Agreed. However if everyone returns to my original bug report and reviews my suggested solution, this would stop any need for the invalid address, double-bounce messages in the first place. Messages to invalid addresses would be handled by smtpd_check_rules before Qmail. Done deal for a large percentage of these double-bounce messages. So far from the Mitel team I have seen no alternative presented. With the help of others, this problem is finally being recognized, understood and a few real world examples are being reported. This will be a supported client issue soon, if not already, that you will need to deal with. It would be nice to have the Mitel team come onboard and present some ideas for us (devinfo) to look into, test and offer feedback on. Let's not take the standard, this is not a supported issue track this time. Let's recognize the issue exists and simply work to develop a solution. IMHO any solution that puts the requirement on a typical non-technically experienced SME Server admin to filter these is not the appropriate answer. We need to develop a server solution. This is why we are all here on devinfo. We develop solutions. So far we have had one alternative hack presented. Thanks John! It was pointed out that this alternative was not recommended but at least it was a presented idea. We need to keep fielding ideas. There has got to be a way to prevent or reduce these double bounce messages. I'm going to fall back to my original bug report and build the template fragment I suggested. If anyone wants to offer feedback on my original suggestion telling me it won't work or if you have a better idea, again let's keep fielding the ideas until we find a winner.
