As I understand it, applying the neccessary patch(es) to qmail to reject 
instead of bouncing email would break at least two critical 
functionalities, that of the .qmail-default alias, and ezmlm mailing 
lists that we run.  At least one of these patches won't work properly 
with vpopmail virtual domains because of permissions issues.

Can you post a link to the RFC the server is violating by bouncing email?

Thanks,
