Re: On mailbox full, retry for 4 days or similar instead of reject
One extra thing, this to be 200% perfect, was the ability to send a
message to the sender telling that the message got queue due to the end
user's mailbox being full.
would it be possible? this may be postfix related but if anyone can
help.
Thanks,

I want postfix not to discard the message imediatly when a mailbox is
full, i mean when postfix tries to deliver it to dovecot lmtp.
Is it possible to change the behavior to something like what postfix
does when he tries to deliver a message to an external server and the
server is unaccessible for 4 days (the default i guess), and if in that
period discard it.
Does this exists? At least i know gmail does something similar to this.
I've tried to google a bit but didn't found info that could lead me to
this configuration.

(at least the code of lmtp_local_rcpt_reply_overquota() says so) Here's another possibility, via Postfix's configuration: # Convert over quota to temporary failure. lmtp_delivery_status_filter = pcre:/local/data/postfix/pcre_lmtp_dsn_filter lmtp_reply_filter = pcre:/local/data/postfix/pcre_lmtp_dsn_filter # warn sender if temporarily undeliverable, just like sendmail would. delay_warning_time = 4h ... where pcre_lmtp_dsn_filter contains something like this, adapted as needed to the actual messages generated at your site: # Convert 5xx permanent failure to 4xx temporary failure: /^5(\d\d) 5(\.\d+\.\d+ \S+ Not enough disk quota)/ 4$1 4$2 Anne. -- Ms. Anne Bennett, Senior Sysadmin, ENCS, Concordia University, Montreal H3G 1M8

Thank you. I'll try this.

LMTP has no queueing mechanism, so the retry should be done with Postfix. Maybe ask in the postfix list how to make it treat LMTP quota/disk full as temporary error? Aki

How do you signal postfix that the mailbox is full? How much over quota do you want a mailbox to be allowed to go? Whats your running config, please show doveconf -n >Does this exists?
