no one else has experienced this, though; it may not be worth adding to
the wiki if it's a "just me" sort of thing.
If I remember correctly this isn't the first time this issue has cropped
up. I'm fairly certain that it's even been discussed on this list
before. Anyway, I've had the following bit of code in my .tmda/config
for years:
# This is where bounced email will go.
# You probably want a line in your incoming filter
# that matches this email and has a drop action
BOUNCE_ENV_SENDER = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
I also (at one time) ensured that the skeleton setups used by TMDA-CGI
included this same code as well as the appropriate drop rule in the
incoming filter.
It certainly isn't a new situation where MTAs are refusing emails with
null envelope senders. It's been a frequently exercised rule for
reducing the amount of spam that gets into the mail system since
spammers often used to leave the envelope sender empty in the effort to
get into your inbox.
