You have a very simplistic view on how mail transportation works and maybe
on how software works.
First: Postfix is a M Transport A and not a M Rejection A. It's common
practice in software design to have plugins do work that the core
package doesn't.
YAWN - it's not about how software is constructed or what it does, but
more about what Postfix is incapable of doing and the old stock trollop
that is rolled out 'That's not the job of the MTA'. That answer was just
about good enough in the 1990's, but it's lame now.
It's clear you either haven't read or haven't understood what Kai wrote,
which btw was spot on.

It's clear that you arn't able to answer the question. Fact, Postfix
lacks features.
