postfix and dovecot for mailbox quota

dear list, Both postfix and dovecot can set the limits for mailbox quota. So what are their special uses? Thanks

send limit option

hello experts if I have added this line into main.cf: smtpd_client_message_rate_limit = 5 does it mean a common smtp user (not peer MTA) can send 5 messages per 1 min? Thanks.

outlook blocks email from private mailserver

though the sender IP is not listed in any RBL, outlook still blocks it. do you know how can I deal with this? thanks & regards.

tually seen it. http://www.postfix-book.com/ I've got a copy of it and it helps a lot to make sense of bits and pieces that make up postfix.
