"Faking a ‘non delivery’ of E-mail."

You know if you send an E-mail to a non-existing address it gets returned to you as ‘non deliverable’ … is it possible to send a fake on of these to an address who you’d prefer to no longer get E-mail from??

I could just bloke the addresses I’ve receiving mail from, but then the senders just create different addresses to send their spam from, and it’s getting rather annoying.

It’s hard to filter this, as the mail is addressed to me directly, rather than as part of a bulk mail out.

I’m hoping that I can in fact send a fake ‘no address exists’ mail back to them, in hope that the person/people will remove my address so as to no longer get these, or the automotive system sending them out will stop sending them to me.

Thanks for any info anybody is able to give.

You could make a PHP Mail Form, put your address as postmaster or whatever, then copy or create a believable email.

Forward a copy of their email to a fake address and then when you get the 'Mail Undelivered' email back, copy it and replace the fake address you entered with your address (in the message itself, that is), change your address in your mail program to something like '[email protected]' and then just send it to them.
