Re: How to queue messages with diffrent bounce time

Hi,

My problem is... :)

I would like that the selected messages injected by specified  interface 
remain in the queue for no longer than 2 hours. I used this 
configuration (master.cf), but it seems that it is not working as I want:


bulk.example.pl: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
   -o maximal_queue_lifetime=2h

In main.cf file queue lifetime is set to much longer period. (2 days)


My question: Is it possible to queue a message with diffrent time for 
the bounce?


Greetings :)


The max queue lifetime is a global parameter.  If you need 
different queue lifetimes, use separate instances of postfix.
All postfix versions support multiple instances, but is 
greatly simplified in postfix 2.6 and newer.

This does nothing.  See qmgr(8), which is what cares about this  
particular parameter; so specifying it as above for smtpd(8) is  
probably harmless but not very useful.


Use a different instance as suggested by Noel.

The smtpd(8) documentation does not promise that maximal_queue_lifetime
can be set in this manner. 

The postconf(5) also makes no promise about which part of Postfix
implements this feature. Therefore it is not safe to set the
parameter in master.cf.

If you want a configuration that is supported you need to use multiple
Postfix instances.  http://www.postfix.org/MULTI_INSTANCE_README.html.

What is the real-world problem you're trying to solve? I smell
backscatter here ... and this approach would not help.

This is for limiting messages sent by Mailman. Bounces will go back to 
Mailman not to public
