I agree, but where did you see the flaming or potential flaming? Definitely not in this thread. Maybe you posted in the wrong thread?

Interesting topic. To answer the question, this is most likely caused by a catchall on your domain -- just disable it (use :fail: and not :blackhole

and you should be fine.

Catchalls are a pain. Worst. Feature. Ever.

Totally agreed! I can see them as being useful only if you need to see where legitimate email is being delivered for a period of time, then setting up actual addresses for them so the catch-all can be removed.

If you need to receive email at a specific address... create that address!

I can live with that. Half a star beats no star at all. Now we're all happy.

It's just happened to me. I've got 3044 emails and at this time of the day (5pm) I ususally have not many more than 20. It's all spam from my email address.
