I've a question. If there is a incoming email where the sender and recipient is the same, than the bounce mail is send to the internal inbox of the user. Is there a possibility to disable the bounce mail if the recipient is internal?

The problem is that some spam emails have our mail adresse in sender and recipient and we got the bounce mail. I hope I was able to express myself clearly.

Thanks for the help!
 
That's the best way. :)
But sometimes we have customers that send a e-mail order and this email will than assessed as SPAM. In this case it is better when a customer is getting a email back. Than they can call us.
