I have a mail server running a cluster of back-end stores (because no single server can handle the load) and Qmail-ldap for the front-end to send the message to the appropriate back-end machine.
The problem is that Qmail is accepting messages for non-existant destinations (IE mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] when there is not account named "user" in the LDAP directory). Ideally Qmail would reject the message with a SMTP 550 code. However then Qmail will repeatedly try to deliver the message "locally" to the back-end machine but aborts every time because it's not in the LDAP (one message had 17 delivery attempts). Any suggestions for what to do about this? -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
