I was setting up my HR site and created the email accounts I wanted to, and I realized that any message sent to a non-real address goes to your default address. Is there any way to change this so any email sent to a non-real address is deleted and an automated response is sent to whomever sent the message saying that the address is not valid. You know, like those MAILER-DAEMON things. Is there any possible way of doing this?

Also, has anyone else had troubles sending a mass email (like to all your friends saying you got a new email address)? I had to send each one individually cause I couldn't get mass emails to work. Does HR block this?

Thank you!

Yep, there certainly is!

Go to your control panel, then select the default address subsection of it, then click the set default address option, then you should see a message saying :

Hint: You can enter :blackhole: to discard all incoming unrouted mail, or :fail: no such address here to bounce it.

so basically you just enter

:blackhold: to delete all incoming mail to a no existant address
or
:fail: to bounce it with an error like the one you specified
