We have a server that has Postfix configured to use a relayhost for all mail delivery. All system mail is handed off to the relay host which then takes over handling for the eventual final delivery.
Today, we had an email message generated by this server that was too large for handing over to the relayhost and the local server logged that its message was bounced. It then sent a bounce message to root's mailbox. The bounce message included a delivery report and the undelivered message headers. However, the rest of the original email was removed.

(I checked and the message isn't in the mail queue, and the message is not in /var/spool/postfix/ ) Thanks, Bryan _______________________________________________ Postfix-users mailing list -- postfix-users@postfix.org To unsubscribe send an email to postfix-users-le...@postfix.org
