Most people handle this by not using "encrypt" on a public server. Postfix can't tell why the MX is dead, so the behavior is correct. If you want to handle it differently, you'll need to add rules for each site, such as a transport map entry that points only to the main MX, or an error: transport entry. -- Noel Jones
