RE: Return message to sender when message size limit exceed

Hi Mouss,

After many tests, I observe that :
- When I use the Postfix Server directly to send messages greater than the message size limit specified, the server doesn't want to send then message and I obtain an error message (message too large) directly and the end of the sending session.
- When I send mail from another SMTP server, the message is accepted, but it's no deliver to the recipient and the sender has no error message. And I have nothing in the logs !!!

So, do you any idea ?

Eric

you forgot the logs that show what happens to the message (from
reception to erejection or bounce or delivery). In short:

- If postfix rejects the message at smtp time, then it is the client MTA
that should send the bounce.
- If postfix successfully delivered the message, then it is the LDA or
whatever took the message that is responsible for the rest of life of
the message
