It is ordinarily done by querying the routers with: require verify = recipients in an acl. BUT - ISTR that you are trying to also do a MySQL-driven 'wildcard' catch-all, so that will seem to find a router capable of local delivery. IF so, I suspect that your setup then later finds it only *thinks* has access to a defined mailstore to which it can deliver. May be unable to assume a non-existent UID, for example. You might be better served to use 'fakereject' to divert such traffic to an admin-owned mailstore location for later manual analysis. Perhaps better yet, we instead enter common mis-spellings / alternate punctuation of each user's address as legitimate aliases, then reject the *massive* number of zombified dictionery attacks and the truly-cobbled addresses outright. At least it is more forgiving than mis-dialed phone of fax numbers. And much less workload!
