Hello,

I do not understand the difference between reject_sender_login_mismatch and reject_known_sender_login_mismatch.

The documentation says about reject_known_sender_login_mismatch:

Apply the reject_sender_login_mismatch restriction only to MAIL FROM addresses that are known in $smtpd_sender_login_maps.

And about reject_sender_login_mismatch, it says:

Reject the request when $smtpd_sender_login_maps specifies an owner for the MAIL FROM address, but the client is not (SASL) logged in as that MAIL FROM address owner; or when the client is (SASL) logged in, but the client login name doesn't own the MAIL FROM address according to $smtpd_sender_login_maps.

I am wondering, as reject_sender_login_mismatch decides on the contents of smtpd_sender_login_maps, both restrictions are not doing exactly the same. I am even wondering why, in the description of reject_sender_login_mismatch, the part after "or" gives additional information to the part before "or". Is the second part not already included in the first part?

Regards
  Christoph
