Suggestion: always eat spam for hidden address
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2008 9:08 amHi,
Spammers have glommed onto a hidden address that I once used.
Unfortunately, quite a few of the messages are forged from bestbuy.com which is in my list of trusted senders.
It makes sense that mail destined for a non-hidden address with a "remaining count" of zero should still be delivered if the "from" address is in the list of trusted senders.
However, if the destination address is hidden, I would think that all mail to that address would be eaten, as hiding it is a good indicator that I really don't want to receive any mail sent to that address.
Thanks for your consideration!
