Bouncing email shows contents of .forward

1997-05-26 15:49:00

Hello,

If I bounce email from Procmail using EXITCODE = 67 the sender receives the
bounced message back, but the message also contains the contents of my
.forward file.  For example, they will see:

   ----- The following addresses had delivery problems -----
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/nuglops/bin/procmail -Yf-|| exit 75 #moseley"
(unrecoverable error)
    (expanded from: <moseley(_at_)netcom(_dot_)com>)

This really doesn't make it look like I don't exist.  Is there anyway to
make it look like I really don't exist?  Would another EXITCODE be better?

Obviously, I'm trying to bounce mail back to advertisers and spammers
hoping that I will be removed from their lists, although I actually doubt
that this will really work since I doubt they even care about bounced
messages.

Thanks,

Bill Moseley
