Hello. In main.cf I have the following configured for recipient
restrictions. My Internet connection went down for about 5 minutes
yesterday and some mail sent within that down time was rejected with
"Recipient address rejected: Domain not found", as expected with the
"reject_unknown_recipient_domain" parameter in the configuration. In
normal operation I would like mail for domains that do not exist
(typos) to be rejected so the user knows immediately that there was a
problem. However, I wouldn't like this to happen if and when the
Internet connection drops out and the server is unable to resolve MX
records. Is there a different way to do this?

Thanks,
Rod

smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
        reject_unknown_recipient_domain
        permit_mynetworks
        reject_non_fqdn_recipient
        check_client_access hash:/var/lib/pop-before-smtp/hosts
        check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:60000
        reject_unauth_destination
