I offered Sam a patch for 1.3.8.mumble and for 1.3.9 to overcome this and return EX_NOUSER instead, but never got a reply. Before I offered the patch, I had been told to not accept mail for unknown users, but on some MTAs, "unknown user" rejection won't work depending on how mail comes in (SMTP vs. sendmail) and how maildrop is integrated.

Sam?

I already gave my answer: it's the mail server's job to refuse mail for nonexistent recipients. The fact that some MTAs can't always do that only means that they should do that.
