If your receiving server is under your control, I would look into
putting up some restrictions, and maybe using dnsbls/rbls.
This does not work, since the backscatter senders are legitimate servers.
SpamAssassin can probably also help filter out the backscatter.
I get not more then 1.7 since it seems , spamassassin is confused about
the MAILER-DAEMON message...
If I extract the spam from the backscatter, I get a score of mostly
between 4.5 and 8.0.
Sending it back definitely isn't going to do anything (except maybe
get your domain/ips blacklisted). Just as you are getting backscatter
for mail you don't send; the servers sending it to you are sending it
because a spammer is taking advantage of them too (though admittedly,
if they configured their servers better, you probably wouldn't get
backscatter from them).
Since the server in Nürnberg is NOT under my control, I will ask my
Profider to reject any <MAILER-DAEMOM>, <postmaster> and <noreply> from
russia, <earthlink.net> and <rr.com>
