    I'm thinking about how it works...

    I use the email [email protected] and put in some aliases, lets say fritz/heinz/karl.

    First, for ISPConfig, is it correct then, that [email protected] will collect [email protected] ...too?

    Second, if I don't use catch all for this account but this is my only mailadress for the domain firma.de...would other mails like [email protected] automatically get bounced or would they stay somewhere until there is an catch all account that collects them?

    Third, would it then be enough to put an anti-spam config like the following into main.cf to get rid of unused mails?

    Code:
    bounce_template_file = /etc/postfix/bounce.cf
    delay_warning_time = 30m
    bounce_queue_lifetime = 3d
    maximal_queue_lifetime = 3d
    smtpd_sasl_local_domain = 
    smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
    smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
    broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
    smtpd_helo_required = yes
    disable_vrfy_command = yes
    strict_rfc821_envelopes = yes
    invalid_hostname_reject_code = 554
    multi_recipient_bounce_reject_code = 554
    non_fqdn_reject_code = 554
    relay_domains_reject_code = 554
    unknown_address_reject_code = 554
    unknown_client_reject_code = 554
    unknown_hostname_reject_code = 554
    unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 554
    unknown_relay_recipient_reject_code = 554
    unknown_sender_reject_code = 554
    unknown_virtual_alias_reject_code = 554
    unknown_virtual_mailbox_reject_code = 554
    unverified_recipient_reject_code = 554
    unverified_sender_reject_code = 554
    smtpd_client_restrictions =
    smtpd_helo_restrictions =
    smtpd_sender_restrictions =
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = 
    permit_sasl_authenticated,
    permit_mynetworks,
    reject_unauth_destination,
    check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:60000,
    reject_unauth_pipelining,
    reject_invalid_hostname,
    reject_non_fqdn_sender,
    reject_unknown_sender_domain,
    reject_non_fqdn_recipient,
    reject_unknown_recipient_domain,
    permit

    Yes.

    Yes, they'd get bounced.
