Hi all, I am not sure that there is anything that I can do about this but let me ask. I received the mail below. It scored 36, I tag at 10 and delete at 40. So I am supposed to pass it on to the user. Now the mailboxes that I am passing on to for this domain are hosted at

Aside from shortening my number of retries is there anything that I can do? Somehow I think not. No. The server is performing sender address verification, failing, but giving a retry (4xx) code instead of a failure (5xx) code. Once your server sees the retry code, it, well, retries. By

Can I interrogate the 4xx code coming back and if it is for that domain from that ISP then I can delete the message and not retry? Never mind the error code, you could just write a Declude filter to bounce the message on this MAIL FROM and this recipient. Or just add the MAIL FROM to
