I've worked around my immediate problem by having cyrus/lmtp report a permanent delivery failure for over quota users. (imapd.conf: lmtp_over_quota_perm_failure: 1) Because we're using unverified_recipient_reject_code = 450 only mail already in the queue (or locally generated) will send a permanent failure for over quota users, external mail will still get a unverified_recipient 450 - I can live with that :-) > I avoid the problem by making all domains (including $myorigin) non-local, > local(8) delivery happens only after virtual(5) alias expansion results > in a name listed in $mydestination, addresses used and seen by users are > never local (have domains in $mydestination). With this, delivery to user > addresses is always "indirect". I'm curious as to how you make all domains non-local? Would you not then have to list every local mailbox/alias as u...@real.domain as a virtual entry?
