You've got me intrigued now.
For POP3:
On each deadbeat domain's General tab, how about setting (see help
file):
Default Max. Mailbox Size to 1 (instead of 0 or unlimited)
Single Message Max. Size to 1 (instead of 0 or unlimited)
Default Max. Messages to 1 (instead of 0 or unlimited)
For SMTP:
On the Services/SMTP/SMTP Security tab (page 149 of v7 manual):
Create a kill file with @deadbeat1.com, @deadbeat2.com, etc. in it
