Hi all,
Again, I am getting slaughtered on the spamlists....Borderware, Barracuda
etc etc etc. and it appears to all be because of backscatter spam.
I am seriously in need of some help.
Again, the question is ... how do I turn OFF bounces altogether, or better
yet, only send bounces to locally generated email.
Here is a copy of my configre file:
