Firstly, if you're out of quota for example, and using postfix, will it need to send a bounce email, or will it do the out of quota error at SMTP time? (preferred)
Hmm, I've come back to this place again. Any ideas people? Will Dovecot-LDA to SMTP time errors? Can it?
Currently it sends a reject message in any case. I guess it could be changed to (optionally?) return the error message to caller instead. But I'm not exactly sure how that works.
In any case that requires calling the LDA immediately after the mail is received. I thought people didn't like to do that because if there are slow spam checks and such the incoming SMTP connection pool could quickly fill up and new SMTP connections would get rejected.
