Ok, so if it's in bytes, the description in policyd.conf is wrong, unfortunately. Thank you for clearifying. > What's your SMTP server's setting 00 if any -- on the maximum size of > any email message?

If not, then none of them probably ever really got delivered. No. We have Postfix message_size_limit of 15MB and to not bother that, I set SENDERMSGSIZE to 20MB (20480000). What I am really wondering are the things shown in this two lines of log occuring directly one after another: 2008-02-21 13:01:44 smtp2 local1.info policyd policyd[28701]: [ID 739646 local1.info] rcpt=172608, throttle=update(a), host=x.x.x.x, from=<>, [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=8876/20480000, quota=3007356/200000000, count=57/1000(57), rcpt=58/1000(58), threshold=1|5|5 2008-02-21 13:02:29 smtp2 local1.info policyd policyd[28701]: [ID 739646 local1.info] rcpt=172737, throttle=update(p), host=x.x.x.x, from=xxx, toxxx, size=7740337/20480000, quota=498390976/200000000, count=59/1000(59), rcpt=123/1000(123), threshold=245|5|12 As you can see, without any mail between those 2 entries coming from the same IP running through the system, the Threshold jumps from 1 to 245 (Factor 2.5, resulting in blacklisting), although the mail responsible for that is just 7 MB in size and the quota was at 3MB out of 200 (see above). This just seems to be broken, or am I missing something? Although, I could'nt find any information about what means "abuse(f), abuse(a) and abuse(p)... can anyone clearify that?
