Hi, I would like to know if anyone can tell me how to setup a black hole for email.

Apparently I have emails that are backing up and using hundreds of megabytes of space. They are pointing to email addresses that no longer exisist and are probably all spam. So I would like to get rid of them permanantly by setting up a black hole, or somewhere they will immediately be flushed out.

Thanks.

What mail transfer program are you using? (sendmail, postfix, qmail)... Windows based or Linux?

I don't know. I assume it's whatever Codezhost uses [squirrelmail I believe]. And I believe it's linux on the servers.

Yes it is opensource email web-based SquirrelMail

here's an article on how to automatically delete unwanted emails:
