Noah, If you delete the webmaster email key you might find that it makes up some non-existent e-mail address based on your server name. You could try adding an 'Errors-To: errors@yourdomain.com' header in the e-mail which is supposed to tell the receiving server to send any errors to a specific address. It's never used by anyone so chances are there are servers out there that will ignore it, but it's worth a go. Then, depending on what e-mail client you have, you could have a rule that did some clever jiggery-pokery and removed the offending address from the list without even bothering you.

The problem is once an email becomes inactive, I the webmaster gets a failure email sent to me. This is starting to add up and I can get upwards of 20 of these a day. It just seems likea waste of space and bandwidth... is there anyway I can prevent this? If i delete the webmaster email key in php.ini will my emails not have a reply address?
