If that server has also a NS role, the "extravaganza" task is questionable.

Dear postfix gurus, Could you, please, suggest the method to setup a message counter on SMTP, so every incoming message regardless exact content of To: Cc: or Bcc: fields (e.g. one SMTP transaction) would increase the counter by one or call corresponding bash script able to do that? I've got development task to create a sort of ephemeral MX which should run only limited amount of time and/or process only limited amount of messages. After it reaches MAX_MESSAGES or MAX_UPTIME (whatever comes first), the server should check if all the queues are empty, stop postfix and reboot or shutdown itself (don't ask me why do I need such extravaganza, ;) that's simply must be a part of our continuous integration workflow). Thanx in advance, Kirill
