The server is the one rejecting the mail because it passed a limit set
in postfix.
Not necessarily. If the client uses HELO and sends more data than the
server is willing to accept, then the server does reject the message and
logs it as such:
Oct 19 11:54:46 mail postfix/smtpd[17590]: warning: DEAAF47EE39: queue
file size limit exceeded
If the client uses EHLO and the server response includes a SIZE
statement, the client will often disconnect without issuing a command
because it knows the message is undeliverable. In this case, the server
has no information to log about why this happened.
Thanks, I bet this is what is happening. I only got the messages as logged
by the QA team when they did this test.
