I finally was able to transfer my domain, so now my qmail-toaster is
handling email directly from everywhere, instead of forwarded emails
from my old (hosted) server.
On the old server, as with the toaster, I have an account designated as
the catch-all for names that aren't defined, as I like to make them up
fairly frequently (so I can tell who I gave the name to).
In addition, on the old server I had a 'disabled' account where I would
alias all names that were no longer in use (totally rejecting incoming
mail). On the toaster, I figured I'd set up the same kind of situation,
only there is no 'disabled' status, only 'delete mail'. This works ok,
but isn't optimal. I'd like to have the recipient name fail at smtp
time, such that the sender gets a meaningful rejection message and my
toaster doesn't burn cycles scanning the stuff. I'm thinking of putting
the defunct names in the /var/qmail/control/badmailto file, but that
doesn't really seem to be its purpose. It seems to work ok, but I'm not
sure what kind of rejection the sender gets at that point. Is this the
best way to handle such a situation, or is there something else I can do?
TIA
