Hi,
This question concerns Postfix; version 2.2.5, on SUSE 10.0, if
that matters.
On a mail relay gateway (our backup mail server) the valid users of
the relayed domains are not known. I.e., infrastructure and
processes are not (yet) in place to use relay_recipient_maps.
When that mail gateway delivers email to our main mail server,
bounce messages are created for unknown users. Bounce messages to
valid senders are usually delivered immediately or at the second
try (when greylisting is used). But bounce messages that are caused
by spam emails remain in our queue and are tried to deliver again
and again for several days.
Is it possible to configure postfix in such a way that emails from
MAILER-DAEMON to arbitrary addresses are only tried to deliver
twice, and are discarded afterwards?
I don't want to turn off the sending of "unknown user" bounces;
after all, one of our customers could have had a typo and should be
notified. OTOH, it would be nice if one could stop spurious bounce
messages.
Best,
Joachim
