    then the thing to fix is these mailers. reject_unlisted_sender is safe
    and sane. you don't want to send mail that can't get a bounce in case of
    errors, or can't replied to. if the bulkers don't want people replying,
    provide them with one address (some people use noreply at dot dot dot dot ) that is
    forwarded to you or some administrative account. but a -owner style
    address as the envelope sender is appropriate here.
