Here is my log file from this morning. I get a couple instances of this a
day, some of them having close to 100 recipients, all invalid. Couldn't
you spam somebody this way. Create 100 messages and have the from address
who you really wanted to send the mail to. Send it to any given mail
server that would accept it. The mail server rejects the message because
the recipient is not local, and sends the undeliverable to the from
sender. I will block this address but still...
This is a spam tactic that is used, but normally a invalid user email is bounced DURING the transaction, not after the fact, so it is not the most effective method.
Also, please refresh my memory on how to create the <unknown> account so I
can have all invalid recipients go to another email address for sorting
and forwarding (or blocking).
Very very very bad idea.
