Then it would be a good idea to quickly find out what these NDRs are.
Incoming? Outgoing?

If incoming, why haven't they been delivered to their destination? If
outgoing, what were the incoming messages that caused the outgoing
NDRs to be generated?

Why do you want to do that?

That would deprive your users of the important error messages that
might inform them about mail not being delivered. And it would have
you blacklisted with rfc-ignorant.org.

How did you test it?

So we are talking about outgoing NDRs? In that case, blocking incoming
e-mails with a null sender won't bring you anywhere. What are the
messages that caused the outgoing NDRs to be generated?
