Spam Bounce action issues

[Alex Neuman]

Then set up a ruleset that includes "if from my ip range and from my domain,
don't bounce - otherwise do". And bury the horse, it's gathering flies ;)

Look, can we please stop beating the dead horse issue. Yes, those of us that
continue to bounce messages, low score or otherwise, know that we are
unliked by the masses that never bounce. We're not going to convince you
otherwise, nor are you going to convince us. Its a dead issue...

It seems everytime a legitimate question related to bounce comes up, an
avalanche of "DON'T BOUNCE" replies get posted. Some of us are going to
bounce, and flaying the dead horse isn't helpful.

I was trying to stay on topic related to those of us who DO bounce, on how
to not bounce spam reports to our own customers when the 'From' of a spam is
faked.

In my situation, I know for a fact that any email coming into my MS that has
a 'From' domain of my own domain is faked. I know that because outbound
email from my customers, the only ones whom should be using my domain in
their address, do not pass through my MS server. Hence, and email saying its
from my domain is faked, and I delete it with no bounce.
