How do I interpret a request with no instance attribute?
In which phase of the SMTP transaction do you plug in your policy service? >From what I understand, the instance attribute does not exist until Postfix chooses/assigns a queue ID, which happens *after* the first RCPT TO command is accepted. If your policy service plugs in before that, there is no instance; therefore, the attribute is empty. -- Sahil Tandon <sa...@tandon.net>
