Question Postfix set sending rate limit for certain domains

[jpc]

Some domains need to limit the number of sending mail otherwise they will suspend delivery (and connection, on yahoo for example)

How can we limit the number of mail/connection for a specific domain, under Plesk/Postfix ( with templates and transport_maps =, hash: / var / spool / postfix / plesk / transport)?

Thank you for your help

Hi,

There is no option to limit the number of emails to a specific domain in Plesk, but you can limit the outgoing emails in Plesk.
Please check the :
http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...k-customer-guide/index.htm?fileName=73362.htm

You can completely block the emails to a specific domain.

add a transport map in main.cf:

transport_maps = texthash:/etc/postfix/transport

and add in transport
----
domain :
* discard:
---

This will simply discard messages to any email address not of the domain.
Now we need to create a hash of the file :

postmap /etc/postfix/transport

And reload postfix.

/etc/init.d/postfix reload

Thank you,

the transport_maps has already a value on plesk (with a transport.db file )
transport_maps =, hash:/var/spool /postfix/plesk /transport

does postfix will still work with
transport_maps = texthash:/etc/postfix/transport ???

or do i have to mix with something like ?
transport_maps =, hash:/var/spool /postfix/plesk /transport, texthash:/etc/postfix/transport

thanks

Hi,

You can try adding a new file and map to "transport_maps". That should work.
