Such bounce emails are usually sent using an empty envelope sender address "<>". Currently mlmmj discards all emails with an empty envelope sender address and this is not configurable (see mlmmj-process.c, line ~704) I've found a good description why an empty envelope is a valid thing according to RFC 821, page 15: http://marc.merlins.org/netrants/nullenvelope.txt Should we make this configurable or disable the code altogether? If we make it configurable: Should we invert the default value? Best regards, Thomas
