No because lmtpd return an "accept" or "reject" address by address something like 250 addres1@xxxxxxxxxx 250 addres2@xxxxxxxxxx ... > > On the other hand there is the option lmtp_strict_quota which means > that lmtpd knows the size, but as far as i know from SMTP the size is > not part of the envelope but the data. > > > > > Anyway your question is not without interest, > > but add such a feature add some problemes like what to do at > > each retry of the SMTP ?

If you have forwarded the mail but were not able to deliver it, you must remember for next LMTP retry to not forward it again ! > > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > M.Menge Tel.: (49) 7071/29-70316 > Universitaet Tuebingen Fax.: (49) 7071/29-5912 > Zentrum fuer Datenverarbeitung mail: > michael.menge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Waechterstrasse 76 > 72074 Tuebingen > -- Alain Spineux aspineux gmail com May the sources be with you ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
