300 is a limit in /etc/virtual/limit

There are a lot of messages in MAIL QUEUE with undefined (<>) sender. (answers to spammers about non existing addresses)
May be "echo 10000>/etc/virtual/limit_unknow" will fix the problem... But how to fix it correctly?



example:
2011-03-20 20:44:44 Received from <> R=1Q1NcH-0001tm-N8 U=mail P=local S=12872 T="Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender"
2011-03-20 20:44:44 routing failed for [email protected] F=<>: Unrouteable address
*** Frozen (delivery error message)
