If I eliminate NDRs completely for invalid addresses, though, then
people who make innocent typing mistakes will not know that their
message did not get through. 

 

......

 

I re-read KB909005, and I missed the part about NDRs still being
generated but pushing it back to the sending server before accepting the
message. I think that will work.

 

Thanks,

I'd think recipient filtering as long as it's done at the front door
would eliminate NDRs for invalid addresses.

Stop sending NDRs?

I'm using Exchange 2003 and am trying to keep my domain from
participating in NDR flood attacks. I've identified two possible
methods: NDR attachment stripping, or recipient filtering paired with
SMTP tar pitting. Any preference as to which is better, or are there
other methods to fight this crud?

 

Thanks in advance,
