Is there a way to reject non-subscribers at the time of their initial SMTP conversation, as opposed to either rejecting them later (with an associated bounce message) or silently discarding them?
I don't want to generate bounce messages because of the back-scatter they generate, but silently discarding is also bad: non-spam senders should get some notification that their message has failed. I'm using exim4 and it seems likely that there is a way to have exim check whether mailman is willing to accept the message at SMTP time. Is this something that others have done? I thought it would have been a fairly common requirement but I haven't been able to find any clear notes on how to do it.
