[Dovecot] How to disable system users from receiving mail?
I know that login can be disable for system users and groups, but how do I refuse email for system groups? It's a bit of a security/maintenance irritation - I don't want to check for such spam mail, since that is possible. Thanks for any help!! Answer preferably given, so that I can configure it through webmin please.

Configure your SMTP server not to accept mail for system groups/users if that is really what you wish to do. -- Sahil Tandon <sahil at tandon.net>
