How does MailWasher Pro bounce messages?
Bouncing makes it looks as if your email address is not valid. Great for letting your ex-boyfriend/girlfriend/ wife/husband/friend think your email address doesn’t exist anymore and that you’re no longer contactable. MailWasher Pro uses an algorithm to determine the best route to send the bounced message back (from, reply to, return path). MailWasher Pro can bounce a message one of two ways: • Local option – The bounce is sent back via your ISP’s postmaster. • Remote option – The bounce is sent back via the sender’s SMTP server. In either case, the bounce looks exactly like it has come from your ISP and not from your address. Warning: If the spammer has used a fake address, then your bounce message will itself be bounced back to the postmaster (local option) or lost in cyberspace (remote option) and you won’t receive the bounced bounce email. So please don’t use this feature to bounce back spam as most spam is sent from fake sender addresses, so the bounces go nowhere and may annoy you
