Hi,

I'm trying to use postfix-3.5.7 to throttle email to freemail domains
like gmail and yahoo, but having some problems. I'm able to throttle
it for users @gmail.com, but not for domains that use google as their
MX because the recipient is not @gmail.com, for example.

For this reason, I thought I could just generally throttle the default
delivery, and create another delivery agent that increases concurrency
for domains I know to be able to manage what is normally the default.
Hopefully that makes sense.

The problem is that I'm using always_bcc to deliver a copy of each
email locally, and by modifying the default delivery agent:

default_destination_concurrency_limit = 4
default_destination_rate_delay = 6s
default_extra_recipient_limit = 10

This results in emails to my always_bcc user sitting in the active
queue for an excessive period. I tried to explicitly define this
recipient to be processed by the local delivery agent, but that didn't
work.

/mail-archive\@myhost.example.com$/ local:

/etc/postfix/main.cf:
gmail_initial_destination_concurrency = 1
gmail_destination_concurrency_limit = 4
gmail_destination_recipient_limit = 15
gmail_connect_timeout=3s
gmail_connection_cache_on_demand=no

/etc/postfix/master.cf:
gmail  unix - - n - - smtp
        -o syslog_name=postfix-gmail
        -o smtp_connect_timeout=$gmail_connect_timeout
        -o smtp_connection_cache_on_demand=$gmail_connection_cache_on_demand

Thanks,
Alex
