[Dovecot] dovecot2beta5 lmtp
Hello,
recently I inspected the sourcecode of the lmtp server. I searched for changes that would add return-path header. ( http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2010-February/046401.html )
But I found, that all mails are spooled via files in /tmp. ( dovecot2/srv/lmtp/commands.c ~line 695 )
has somebody experiences while delivering huge ammount of mail via dovecot2 lmtp service?
- is it faster/slower/comaparable with deliver?
- it's hard to believe, that nobody realy misses the return-path header
Thanks, Andreas

not tested with much mail yet, all features ( quota etc ) working like deliver ( so far tested ) the most interesting thing for me with lmtp is that postfix bounces now overquota mails on smtp income stage with lmtp, no danger for backscatter anymore ( so far small tsts results ) anyway lmtp should have better perfomance a a local prog like deliver but thats what i guess not meassured

Hm, I hope you mean Postfix rejects the mail, if the user is over quota. Bouncing mails is bad. If your Postfix rejects the message, while the sending client is still connected, I'm interested in your setup. :)
How does Postfix communicate with Dovecot's lmtp, unix or tcp socket? Any special smtpd_recipient_restrictions?

Not all mails. Only mails larger than CLIENT_MAIL_DATA_MAX_INMEMORY_SIZE (128 kB).
