Hanging up after 410? That may actually result in the queue manager marking a site as "dead" after a sufficient number of such errors, and not delivering any mail to it for $minimal_backoff_time. http://www.postfix.org/TUNING_README.html#hammer Otherwise, I don't know of any SMTP reply code that says "I can't receive any message at all" instead of "I can't receive the message that you are trying to send to me now".
