Rayan:

Thanks for the entertaining reply (particularly the .signature!).  As
you say, it's the "all bets are off" area that you want to avoid.
Would ZMailer reconstruct the To: line by placing some bogus address?
BTW, I'm I misunderstood which direction the error was going.

<> can be replaced with an alias to an address linked to /dev/null, if
need be.  The goal of <> was to keep error messages from looping.  If
a message is bounced back to your site, and you throw it away, it may
be the best you can do (for example converting <> to bionet!nobody
would be fair for a UUCP gateway).
