True, but it's far more common that it's bad content sent from a forged
address. Not sending backscatter is a clear best pracice these days.
More experienced admins might set up a quarantine/release system
(amavisd-new supports this), but such a system is too complex for a
default. I think no backscatter is a good default approach. It's easy
enough to change for people experienced enough to manage the
consequences.
** Changed in: amavisd-new (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
