Preventing Bounce Emails (MDR)

Oct 27 06 12:00 am

Hi All,
Is it possable to prevent maingate from sending bounce emails to senders?

I have a number of users who have now been removed as they used to get spammed highly. The amount of bounce emails is now causing me to get rake linited by me isp. Can I disable all bounce back emails, better still can I disable then for specific address's.

Many Thanks

Paul.

You can get WinGate to instead refuse acceptance of mail for any address not configured in WinGate.

That way there won't be any bounce messages (at least not generated by your WinGate) for mails to non-existent addresses.

You need to add an address handler in WinGate for each address you will accept delivery for, and then uncheck the option to receive mail for addresses not specifically handled (the one at the bottom of the addresses tab for the domain).
