There are different ways to block these addresses. If you are certain that these addresses only receive SPAM you can add them to the spam trap list which will not only block them but also train the spam filter with the message contents. |

Hi there,
I use the catch-all-feature, so any address can be used as a temporary E-Mail-address without configuration. If the address will be permanently used, I create an alias or an account with this address (BTW: the mail-server is used only by me and my family).
But some addresses never used before are getting spam E-Mails. I suspect that the previous owner of the domain used these addresses.
And my domain name seems to be similar to a little online-shop, so I am getting some requests and offers.
What I like to do:
Block all the addresses I know to get spam and/or requests regarding the online-shop (about 20 addresses)
But keep using the catch-all-Feature.
Attempts to send an E-Mail to a blocked address should be answered with any kind of 5xx-Code, so that a legitimate sender knows something went wrong.
How can I do that?
Any idea is appreciated.
PS: Using stalwart mail-server 0.73
