I noticed in the release notes that Postfix 2.7 receives the full

think this addresses the concern.
Milter applications see SMTP commands as they happen.
That doesn't really address anything I'm asking here. My question is
what happens if the milters are broken. If they are broken, I doubt
they are seeing much SMTP command wise.
It answers your question. Even in 2.7 there is no buffering with milters.
Only pre-queue proxy filters are buffered. Milter behaviour is unchanged
from 2.6.
No, my question was about how things behave in general, not specific to
2.7. That answer came from Sahil. All Wieste said is that "Milter
applications see the SMTP commands as they happen". I specifically said,
in fact, in my email, that I was pretty sure 2.7 did not address the
concern about rejected email. So many thanks to Sahil who took the time to
read my question in full.
