I have a mailer set up on my forums. But my host keeps bitching at me because he is getting rejected email from ppl who dont have there email accounts activiated. They keep telling me to fix my scripts so that i get the email, or he is going to close my site (which is total BS)... is there a specific header i have to add to the mailer's headers other than Reply-to:[email protected] ???

Not that I'm aware of.

Who is your host? I don't think they can do that. Besides, what kind of a host has a catch all email for their clients domains?

If I'm not mistaking, it's return-path that needs to be changed. The problem is that it depending on configuration of the server you're on, you might not be able to change it. I really don't see any reason for users to change it either, specially just to prevent mails going to the web host! It sounds more to me that if the web host is looking for a reason to kick you out.
