You mean disable this code in qmail-smtpd.c ? :
if ( strstr(read_buf, "bounce-no-mailbox") == NULL ) {
retstat = 1;
break;
}
Exactly.
You may delete all the code between case 0: and case 1: (case 0: must exist).

Hrm... Is there a reason to not check for the user's existance before
accepting the mail? It seems to have significantly stopped the amount
of junk we get and queue
You may have new customers, not able to tell you all the existing mailbox,
so you must keep catchall in use for some months, before switching to bouncing.
If you have not that problem, cut the code.

I agree, chkuser patch works with mysql, or cdb, depending how vpopmail was compiled. The patch calls vauth_getpw vpopmail function, and depending how vpopmail was compiled that function looks inside cdb or mysql. Here's what I use so maildrop is used. my .qmail-default is: #| /Appz2/VPopMail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox |/usr/bin/maildrop -w 90 The patch seeks for "bounce-no-mailbox" is in .qmail-default, and not a catch-all account. So though to first line is commented out, doing nothing, is enough for the patch to work. Later, when the maildrop line is executed, you may use your spamassassin code inside maildroprc, just like I suppose you're doing right now. Viewing the patch source code is easy to understand how it works. I know, not an elegant solution, but an easy one.
Re: [vchkpw] Tip for using chkuser with Maildrop
You may do it enabling chkuser always, deleting the lines of code checking for that string. We could also look for a different string or for a different file (i.e. like .qmailenablebounce), if you tell me your need and we may change what we want. Tonino P.S. I'm studying for version 2.0 of chkuser, this could be another issue.

[vchkpw] Tip for using chkuser with Maildrop
Thought I'd share this tip with the crowd... The chkuser patch, which ensures an address is valid in the given domain before accepting a message, would be defeated if you simply replace your vdelivermail line with a Maildrop delivery line in .qmail-default. After taking a peek at how the chkuser patch works, I realized that it will work correctly if you instead comment-out the vdelivermail line and add your Maildrop line after. #| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox | maildrop .mailfilter Chkuser sees the "bounce-no-mailbox" it needs to see this way, without altering the patch. A little klugey maybe, but it works. - Ron
