[gentoo-user] OT: Stopping postfix error emails...

2005-06-20 Thread Dave Nebinger
Sorry for the OT question, but here goes...

I've set up the reject_unauth_destination in the
smtpd_recipient_restrictions in postfix.conf because I was getting hammered
with incoming mail to invalid users.  I figured that by rejecting these
messages the spammers on the other end might take the addresses out of their
list(s), although I have no idea if this will actually be the case.

So anyways that's working just fine, except now the smtpd daemon is flooding
me with messages when it issues the 550 code back to the sending mail client
when they try to send an email to an unknown user.

Anyone out there know how I can disable the sending of the smtpd daemon
emails when this particular 550 error is being sent?

Thanks in advance...

Dave

Check what notify_classes is set to in /etc/postfix/main.cf.
I believe that is what determines what messages are sent.
