Hi all,
id like to modify the message postfix sends to the server when it
rejects an email in one of the checks performed.
For example,
450 Helo command rejected: Host not found; http://readhereforemore.info
Any check_*_access map can return an error code and a custom reply message.
A restriction class can, too.
that administrators which have no clue about email systems have a bit
more information why iam rejecting there mail.
does this make sense ?
Btw: I use tumgreyspf and it also sends a custom dsn message, is this
non standard conform in any way ?
I don't understand what you mean by "custom DSN".
A DSN is a normal email message, its contents aren't written down anywhere.
There is an RFC about them, however.
Thanks
Frank
Hello Jeroen,
thanks for your answer.
The problem is the following, i see some legitimate mail beeing rejected
by my mailserver because some other administrators are not capable of
setting the name of their mailserver right (helo doesnt has an A record
for example). Now i think its just fine to reject this mail instead of
accepting such mailservers, i would however like to give a small note
why iam rejecting there mail. These administrators cant configure a mail
server right so i dont think they understand "helo command rejected..."
so id like to add a link where they can find more information.
If iam right the sender receives a message from the server beeing
rejected after several trys in the form of "iam giving up now, ...."
there i would like that he sees a custom link http://whyismymailrejected
Maybe if many users are asking why there mail didnt got delivered they
wake up and fix there servers.
Thanks,
Frank
