Then you should really make sure that exchange doesn't
accept mail for 
non-existing users as Pete suggested. If you tell us what
version of 
exchange your customer is using it'll be easier to provide
an exact method.

If they're not even interested in doing that I suggest you
go to their 
HQ and cut their wire, cause then they don't deserve to
exist on the 
internet :-p

Hmm I think we are talking past each other 

I don't know the exchange version, but I don't think that
this matters
here. The maia-host is located at a remote hoster, the
exchange server
is located in the intranet of the customer.

What I want to achive/what I did already:

- give the maia host a list of all valid recipients
(through
relay_recipient_maps, this works fine)
- relay all of these addresses to exchange (works fine)
- discard all mails that are NOT in the
relay_recipient_maps, and
supress all bounce-messages.

What the exchange server does with the relayed mails is not
my problem
here - I'm only in charge of not letting mails through that
don't have a
valid recipient.

You're right, but that's another problem
