Nah, I get 15-20 a day of these. In fact, an awful lot of them are from an
incoming-only account, that I've never used to send mail, but is listed on
the website.
I have a rule that sends them to a "Viruses - mail bounces from
fake"
folder. In case it helps, the rule matches on the following phrases in the
subject.
Undeliverable
Delivery Status Notification
Undelivered Mail
Returned mail
failure notice
Mail delivery failed
Delivery failure
failure delivery
