I'm using sendmail as the MTA and I would like to make it impossible for certain users (root comes to mind, but there are other userids as well) to receive email from the Internet.
I'd like to "block" it, as opposed to having some sort of filter throw it away after it's arrived. Ideally, these few userids would appear to be invalid to anyone outside my network.
On the other hand ... I do need for all users to be able to receive email "internally" (i.e., from localhost).
In my case, spammers have discovered that there is <gasp!> a "root" user that they can send email to.
Any thoughts?
Thanks much, Charlie
Hi
A solution to this may be to use forward files.
One possible drawback though is some spam spoofs @localhost,.
