Good Morning:
I was asking about limiting the size of outgoing mail.
I'm going to do an example to see if it is clear now.
My databytes file is limiting the size of the e-mail in 1Mb (for example),
so in all my virtual domain user will not receive e-mail bigger than 1Mb
(Ok?).
So if i send an e-mail of 1.5MB (for example) with a user of any of these
domains to another user of any of these domains, the message will not arive
in the second user because it is bigger than 1Mb (allright), then qmail will
return an error message to the user that sent it but it will also include
all the message sent, so the message that qmail will return is bigger than
1.5 Mb (ok?), so the user will not receive the error message because he is
not allowed to receive e-mail bigger than 1Mb.
What i want to know is if there is a way to qmail doesn't send all the
message back, if it is possible to send only an error message, so the user
will know that his message didn't arrive.
Thanks for helping me.
