Causing a bounce this way is one technique for delivering SPAM - or
causing SPAM to *get* delivered.

TopPost:

What if the email address is "valid" but "forged" by a 
spammer, etc., a fairly common practice.  Then you are 
bouncing to the innocent.

    What I'm looking to do is implement a bounced mail 
system for denied attachments because I'm basically going to 
start blocking all of them soon.  But in order to prevent 
someone from getting stung who shouldn't I want a bounce 
message that explains why this is so and what to do to get 
around it.
