From looking at message above I would say that DSPAM has issues sending a mail back to Postfix. Right? If that is the case then I can't tell Postfix to retry as Postfix has already injected/delivered mail to DSPAM and the mail is no longer in the Postfix queue. > Is that possible? so > that an error like this which is my fault can make it so that users mail > doesn't bounce back?

Holding a mail back and retrying later means that the mail is staying inside DSPAM's current memory and the more mails stay there the more memory is used and soon or later the maximum allowed connections to DSPAM will saturate and Postfix will not be able to send new mail to DSPAM. Is the deamon behind the socket able to accept messages with other transport options? Maybe by SMTP or other ways? Maybe we could implement some kind of retry count with a delay and then a fallback to an alternative delivery method and if that fails then raising the error we currently do. Or we rewrite DSPAM to have a queue manager and spool messages there? > Also, is anyone planning on providing fedora packages of dspam? > I had done RPMs for 3.8.0 some while ago. I made them for Tony Earnshaw but he did not liked the way things where made inside the RPM. Anyway... I still have those SPEC files somewhere around and could port them to 3.9.0 without big issues. > If not, > I'd like to volunteer to submit them to the fedora community and become > the packager for fedora. > GREAT!
