Subject: Help-- postfix suddenly reporting SMTP errors to mail

I have just installed Mandraka 2008.1 and they have set up postfix so that
errors like the enclosed are reported to email to postmaster. This totally
swamps the mail box. How do I shut it off? This is an insane use of mail
reporting! (I could of course set up procmail to discard all such mail, but
that would clearly be kludge and I should be able to switch the mail
reporting off in postfix.
