[CLUE-Tech] Qmail doublebounce

I know Sean covered this in his qmail session, but I cannot remember the control file to use to solve my problem.

I've got a qmail server using vpopmail for virtual domain support.  The users in the virtual domains get spammed, and move to other addresses, etc, but they remain on the spam lists.  So when an address gets spammed that doesn't have a user connected to it, qmail bounces the message back to the sender.  Spammers know this and don't accept bounces.  So qmail gets a double bounce message, but instead of going to a non-existent user, it comes to my inbox, the admin...

I remember there being a control file, like doublebouncehost or doublebounceto, but instead of sending doublebounce messages to the address specified in those files, it discards the message, so no more doublebounce spam for me...Any ideas?

George
