But the recipient address(es) should still be known in this step, so wouldn't it make sense to include it/them in the error log message? It's not as if the recipient address was the cause for the rejection in the DNS blacklist case, so why is it included *there*? > The only thing you could do is read the control file to obtain the > recipient list of the original message (there may be more than one, and > courierfilter is invoked once, no matter how many recipients the > message has, and some of those recipients may be remote recipients) and > include the recipients' addresses in your error message. I don't want to pollute my SMTP error messages with that. I'll take the way Gordon suggested and insert the log records directly into the SQL database from my courierfilter. May I'll also create a courierfilter to do DNS blacklist checks, so I can save the message's subject in the SQL database as well, which would greatly increase the users' "Rejected Messages" list's usefulness. Thinking more about it, I think this is a nice idea, since it also enables me to apply DNS blacklist checks based on per-user preferences. On the other hand, it requires every message to be completely received before it can be rejected due to the sending host being listed on a DNS blacklist, which wouldn't normally be the case otherwise.
