Sometimes a silly user will try to send a giant email to one of their clients. Then that client's moronic mailserver will bounce the ENTIRE message back to my user. Courier will reject it becuase it is too big for my user's mailbox as well. It then gets bounced to me the postmaster.
What is the best way to limit the amount of bacndwidth wasted here? At the very least I should be able to use a .mailfilter to keep the giant mail from bouncing to me, right? Where would I put this filter? Would it go with the user to whom I have postmaster aliased? (This user then forwards to another mailserver that I use.) I guess here I can check the size and ditch it if it is too big? Note that the user is not sending the mail out through my server. So I cannot limit the size at that point. Any ideas are welcomed.
