Unseen Deliver Bounces

here's what I want to do. In a filter I want to use unseen deliver to
fork a copy of a message. But if the unseen deliver bounces I want it to
not generate a bounce message. What's an easy way to do that?

Use something like "nobody[at]yourdomain.com" in the errors_to clause
of the unseen deliver, where nobody[at]yourdomain.com is aliased to /dev/null.

Thanks - that seems to be what I was needing.

Quoting Dean Brooks:

Or just leave it empty, as the spec says... not hard to find, really.
