On my system at least, the sieve scripts are executed once messages have been accepted by postfix and passed to cyrus for delivery. I need to look into it further, but I wonder whether a modified postfix version of smmapd would allow earlier rejection.

It depends on how you configure it, but I don't know Postscript so I can't answer for certain that it can do interactive delivery. Most likely not, and you shouldn't bounce messages from Sieve. -- Jo Rhett Network/Software Engineer Net Consonance Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
Re: Sieve - Reject - Backscatter worries
I would like (for convenience) to use Sieve to reject certain messages, but do not want to send backscatter. Use discard instead. That is a good suggestion, thank you. I am still curios if Postfix has accepted the message prior to or after the execution of the sieve script.

Sieve - Reject - Backscatter worries
I would like (for convenience) to use Sieve to reject certain messages, but do not want to send backscatter. I followed http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO/html/ but am using Simon's latest Cyrus RPM. I only have a few users. If I "reject" with sieve, will I send backscatter or will the sending server get the slap in the face?
