My apologies if I overlooked an answer somewhere, but I checked the docs
and performed a brief search of the archives before asking and didn't
spot the answer.
Goal:
BCC everything EXCEPT for health check emails generated by our HAProxy
load-balancer
I originally tried following the directions provided by Victor Duchovni
(see link below), but I evidently didn't follow along well enough to
replicate the results.
I seem to have found a combination of settings which accomplishes my
goal and have listed them below. Are there any issues that you can spot
with my approach?
always_bcc = [email protected]
smtpd_delay_reject = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
...
check_sender_access proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-sender_access.cf,
...
Within the access table I'm mapping the health check sender address to
the DISCARD action. This appears to accomplish the original goal of
exercising the entire intake workflow (port is open, Postfix is running,
sender IP is allowed, sender email address is allowed, address
resolution is working) AND also prevents those health check emails from
going to the always_bcc email address while still sending everything
else over.
Thanks in advance for reading this and offering suggestions.
