Thanks Jeron ,

thanks again for taking interset to my case .

The thing is that i dont get spam any more .
The last incidient was like one of our application server in the
infarsturture uses my relay server
to relay email in the internet what the unix adminstartor of the
application did was diverted all syslog allert to the email address of
his . suddenly there was some peoblem with the application server and
start firing emails around 30,000 to the his email id sudden there was
resource utilization on my postfix relay and queue started builtting up .

though the sender application was sending to wrong recipient email
adress the 30,000 Mailerdeamon got establised the sender mail server
is an production application server i cannot reject him or block him
by giving reject action .

What is the suggested option is to hold the mail in the queue and wait
 for the responce on the customer

So the HOLDing of email is necessary



can u explain what types of cutome tranport rule we can apply with
example/syntax in configuration
please find the current config
=============================================
smtpd_sender_restrictions =  check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_hold
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_recipient,
check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/recipient_access,
permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_client_restrictions =  check_client_access
cidr:/etc/postfix/network_table, reject
smtpd_client_restrictions =  check_client_access
hash:/etc/postfix/access_client, permit
=====================================================
