No, the whole point is that it defers it - which means it tells Postfix to reject the message with a temporary fail (4xx) code. A reject means reject the message with a permanent fail (5xx) code. The difference is that when a mail transport agent (aka mail server) has it's delivery attempt reject with a 4xx code it will requeue the message and try again later, but with a 5xx code it will not attempt another delivery and will do whatever the site config says to do - typically send a "sorry I couldn't deliver your message" email to the sender. But when the sending client is a mail user agent (aka email program), the user will get an error message and will have to manually try sending again. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.policyd.org/mailman/listinfo/users_lists.policyd.org
