What do you do about NDRs

What do people do about NDRs that are trying to be delivered to external
addresses that do not exist?

This is a by product of spam. Email comes in for e-mail address that
does not exist and then Exchange tries to reply that the address is not
here and but the reply to address is bogus. So Exchange tries for 4 days
(or whatever) and then gives up but in the mean time there are tons of
queues waiting for retries.

My understanding is that you cannot tell Exchange not to send out the
NDR.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Thanx
