* Wietse Venema: > What does the milter do when data is unavailable?
My understanding is that milter D is unable to decide whether or not to add its own flag header if the data is unavailable. There might be a default behaviour, but it would render the milter useless. It would require milter changes to respond with code 4xx if a decision cannot yet be made, due to lacking data. > You could put a sleep(500) call in the content filter. > [...] > queue -> smtp(long timeouts) -> proxy(with sleep 500) -> > smtpd(milter D, long milter timeouts) -> queue -> delivery as usual Would that not cause a prohibitively large number of open connections between Postfix's smtp and the sleeping proxy? -Ralph
