Hello, I'm using postfix postfix-2.3.3-2 x86 configured for a single domain. Clients are allowed to relay only after they have performed SMTP AUTH or if they connect from $mynetworks. (postconf -n posted at http://pastebin.ca/1356405)
I'd like to mimic M$ Exchange "recall" behaviour for emails sent by relay-allowed clients. To accomplish this, I thought of putting all relayed mail into the 'hold' queue by default, then with a cron script to release it periodically (ex. "ls -lt" and "postsuper -r <maild older than N minutes>"), and manually use 'postsuper -d' after instructing users to call the helpdesk if they want to 'recall' a message they sent. First thing that comes into mind after reading "man 5 access" is to modify the "smtpd_sender_restrictions" section in main.cf: [...] smtpd_sender_restrictions = check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/check_sender_access_hash reject_non_fqdn_sender reject_unknown_sender_domain ...and in check_sender_access_hash to put: mynetworks.subnet HOLD mydomain.tld HOLD What do you think about the above approach? Would there be better alternatives? Has anyone implemented similar setups? Would the above approach catch all relayed mail ? Would a "pcre:" table perform better than "hash:" for this particular purpose ? Many thanks, Costin
