The server software may have (should indeed have) an option to discard/deny VRFY commands. Look for this.

Thanks , rid,but I see most of mail servers are already tuned for not permitting to use VRFY, Is it right ?
I think most defaults to reject VRFY commands, yes.
Rejecting ALL commands if they come from a telnet session may be another matter. Since SMTP commands are a bit on the simplistic side, doing them by telnet isn't too complicated. You'd have to reject telnet sessions only, and not SMTP session. Perhaps some firewall setting could do this, but what is to gain from that?
