How to disable double-bounces

echo yourdomain.tld > /var/qmail/control/doublebouncehost echo doublebounce > /var/qmail/control/doublebouncto echo "#" > ~vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.tld/.qmail-doublebounce qmailctl restart

The "empty" (only has pound sign) .qmail-doublebounce file in that domain's directory will tell qmail to deliver the message to nowhere. Now you will no longer be bombarded with useless double bounces.
Enjoy the quiet. :)
