Twitterhello,
postfix usually works "ok" when it comes to error messages.
but there seem to be a few not standard responses.
like this:
Transcript of session follows.
so, you see this email is over 18MB, which in my opinion is like sending an elephant with fedex. my server has a limit of 15MB
now, it seems that my postfix is not telling the sender server that the email is not being accepted due a quota or limite related issue. it's just telling the sender server that 451 4.3.0 Error: queue file write error
thus, the sender server keeps sending the same email over and over and over, flooding my postmaster email with stupid errors and increasing server load for absolutely NOTHING
how can this be fixed (and don't tell me to increse the MB limit)?
