From what I understand he is rejecting backscatter that is sent to

but this is irrelevant) and from there forwarded to his mail server. Very bad. If you have configured forwarding somewhere you must be prepared to
accept anything from there, or else you will be the cause of backscatter
as the peer server is a genuine server and not a spambot.you misunderstooood ;-p
whoops! I wrote "with an identical forged sender, but this is
irrelevant", clearly that was NOT irrelevant. I should have paid more
attention to that. Anyway, your document should not be just called
"backscatter how-to", as backscatter will have (if really such), most
of the time, an empty sender. The only exception are some idiotic
virus scanners.
