Hello
I wonder if anyone can help? We are converting from sendmail to exim
on one of our servers which predominantly handles student accounts.
We get the occasional mail coming in with a <> sender to no longer
existant accounts which just gets frozen with no error return. Mail from
a valid user to the 'non-user' gets a message to this effect but how
should we deal with these (often tenacious bounces list testers) from
<> senders?
I can see how we could use the :fail: option in an aliases file
but that will need to be sync'd with all the user registration
databases, etc just in case the user comes back!
This could become more of a problem in a few weeks when a year's
worth of undergraduate accounts expire....
many thanks
Neil
