Postfix implements the same behavior for non-delivery and delay notifications: Non-delivery: - Send a notice to sender if a recipient has no NOTIFY setting, or NOTIFY=FAILURE (with or without SUCCESS or DELAY). - Send a postmaster copy regardless of NOTIFY settings. Delay: - Send a notice to sender if a recipient has no NOTIFY setting, or NOTIFY=DELAY (with or without SUCCESS or FAILURE). - Send a postmaster copy regardless of NOTIFY settings. The idea is that the sender should not control the behavior for postmaster notifications. If we want NOTIFY settings to apply to postmasrer copies then that would require a new configuration parameter. So, the graveyard will be your permanent solution. Wietse
