I want postfix to record these types of domain and use as reference for later sending of mail. When a mail comes if the domain is present in the list then it should not try sending instead defer it or send an notification. say i send a mail to xyz.com and it got bounced i want postfix not to try sent mail to this domain for a specific time. -- Ashwin R.
