I too would be interested in the question about "abnormal amount of emails
to postmaster".  We get about 15K a day of these and just recently started
to pipe them into /dev/null.  It is more of a burden to delete them
manually.  Anyone else have high postmaster email counts?

I'll bet you're both using Sendmail and have Mailer-Daemon aliased to postmaster. If so, change the Mailer-Daemon alias to /dev/null That should eliminate the various bounce messages without stopping anything that is actually addressed to postmaster.

(One of the things I like about Exim is that it doesn't use Mailer-
Daemon; and the default handling of undeliverable bounce messages
is much more sane.)
