Just run tcpserver + qmail-smtpd without starting qmail-send.
The messages will be put on disk, thats all.

If you want to clean that up (and have qmail-send running) create
a  control/virtualdomains  file containing
:alias
and then create a ~alias/.qmail-default file containing only a "#"
character.
(That means control of all domains is given to user "alias".
 .qmail-default takes care of all addresses and the "#" discards
 the messages).

I want to accept, but I don't want to deliver

[Jeremy Hansen]

Basically I want to setup a dummy host that I can relay mail off of, but I
don't want it to actually send the mail to remote machines.

Reason we're doing this is for load testing a mail application...we want
to see what happens with a real mail list without actually having the mail
go out.  What should I do?

Thanks!
