My 2 cents on this, I think that if this could be configurable in dbmail.conf would be nice. For my case, normally if a users mailbox's full, people will contact by phone or other to warn the receipient. But if dbmail-lmtpd could return another code to have postfix deliver the emails when the mailbox has more space, would be nice also. _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list DBmail@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
