AFAIK, hiding the error output is not configurable. Concealing important portions of the DSN seems silly and might even be a violation of RFC 3464 (something you might or might not care about). But if you really wanted to go this route, you could hack the way Postfix constructs a bounce message and/or modify pipe(8) to not report back the nature of a script failure. I know this is probably not the answer for which you had hoped, so good luck! Perhaps Wietse will have a more favorable reply. :-) -- Sahil Tandon <sa...@tandon.net>
