We are receiving a lot of "undeliverable" or "returned" e-mails from the postmaster at various e-mail providers such as HotMail. Does Firefox for Windows provide a way to filter this sort of e-mail, generally referred to as "backscatter" or "outscatter"?

This is not a Firefox issue. Go to your address book at your e-mail provider and carefully check all the effected mail addresses. Also check the mail that came back to you.

Some e-mail providers have filtering options for the users. Check with your provider. .
