Hello,
the motivation for the patch is to reduce the number of bounces, that
would be avoided, if a spam mail is not bounced, but discarded.
A properly working mail system has no reason to prefer bouncing an email
instead of SMTP-rejecting it and under this circumstances there is no
need to discard an mail.
I have developed software as Milter (plugin for sendmail/postfix), that
evaluates the Sieve scripts, uploaded by timsieved, during the SMTP
dialog, and rejects the emails, that would otherwise be accepted by the
MTA and bounced afterwards (by interpreting sieve reject as ereject).
If you are interested, I can send you the software, and as there is no
documentation for it yet, I can explain you how to install it (in fact
the only reason for not releasing it is the lack of documentation).
Със здраве,
Дилян

Hi all,
some time ago I added an enhencement request
to only return IMAP_QUOTA_EXCEEDED if needed
https://bugzilla.cyrusimap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3057
The request was postponed past 2.4.
As the releas of 2.5 is in near future I wanted to ask if
this patch is considerd for 2.5? Is there anything I could do to
help to include it in 2.5?
I didn't have time to look into the source of 2.4 or 2.5 to
check how much work has to be done to change the patch that it will
apply to 2.5.
