[Mimedefang] bounce mail based on To: domain

Hello,
    I had the same issue.  I blocked:

TO: serpico.pcraft.com    REJECT

in the sendmail access file.  That way, mail adddressed to that domain is
blocked.  Mail can still get out from you, if you wish to send system admin
messages or other things, but no one can hand the machine mail destined for
it.

HTH,

Stefano

>     As you can see, the To: field has a totally invalid address (as far as
our users go), in fact, serpico is a mail gateway (it's the system running
MD/SA), so no one should ever email us using that specific hostname/domain
combination.  How can I block this all together?  I'm seeing more and more
SPAM arriving at <some_address>@serpico.pcraft.com - which is just a fake
header because the email was really intended for a user on our domain (as
the example above illustrates.)
