Hi all,

I'm not sure if this list is completely appropriate for this question, so let 
me know if it's not.

I have a couple of Postfix servers that are the MX servers for a couple of 
domains that handle a total of around 160-180k messages each week. They servers 
are just relays (no local accounts), users send messages to a variety of 
addresses, e.g. supp...@ourdomain.com<mailto:supp...@ourdomain.com> and aliases 
forward them to the appropriate internal or external recipients, e.g. 
supp...@ourdomain.zendesk.com<mailto:supp...@ourdomain.zendesk.com>. A large 
portion go through AWS SES via a sender-dependent relay map entry and then on 
to their intended recipients at whatever receiving ESP.

Occasionally due to forgeries and other issues, receipient SMTP servers can 
temporarily defer messages from these servers or even block them until 
contacted for removal from the list. I do use pflogsumm to summarize the logs 
daily on both servers and I keep those for a month, but it would be nice to be 
immediately alerted if postfix logs messages about such deferrals or blocks. 
Does Postfix have any native capabilities good for detecting these issues and 
acting on them, or would I just need to do some kind of checks on the pflogsumm 
output each day? Obviously the sooner I can catch these messages and act on 
them, the better, so the more realtime I can do this, the better.

Thanks,
Justin
