Hi,
i don't think my situation keeps changing- That's simple: on my evinronment users can send email via CGI + PHP + SMTP (sasl), and i want to limit them "globally". Example: user giorgio can send 100 emails. I want him locked also on CGI, if he send 100 emails with PHP. I can't: - use a custom php sendmail wrapper -> it would only work with php - limit the sender -> a randomized from would broke my limit - limit the host -> all mail are sent from localhost - limit via sasl -> i can't request all users to authenticate Limiting the envelope user, is perfect for me. But, i'm asking if there is a simplier solution. 2009/7/13 Sahil Tandon <sa...@tandon.net>: > On Jul 13, 2009, at 5:54 AM, "ad...@gg-lab.net" <ad...@gg-lab.net> wrote: > >> Lucian, i saw that solution, but i want something that can globally >> limit EVERY mail sent: >> >> i'll also offer smtp access, and a sendmail wrapper isn't a solution. >> >> Benny: ok, so we are speaking about the evenlope sender, so, it seems >> this is the solution. > > What are you trying to do exactly?
