Without getting into the more contentious part of per-user rejection *action*
(DSN messages), the above 'threshold' can at least be made more specific:
Where acl_m(x) is the 'min' we wish to derive from the current batch of
recipients:
Enter acl_smtp_rcpt with, for example, a system-max threshold (10?) in acl_m(x).
At the head of acl_smpt_rcpt:
set acl_m(x) = ${eval:$acl_m(x)}
So as to preserve the result of the previous pass.
======
For each pass, pull the recipient's threshold into, for example, acl_m(y) from
wherever you are storing it.
Compare acl_m(y) - current recipient threshold,
with $acl_m(x) lowest threshold seen previously,
and set acl_m(x) to the lower value.
This preserves the 'min' value of that specific batch of recipients, rather
than
forcing use of system-wide defaults.
HTH,
Bill
