Hi,

In my previous question [1] Viktor Dukhovni suggested

> you could use a policy service to impose rate limits per SASL login, or
sender address


as a means of preventing active queue congestion.


This took me down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at SMTP Access Policy
delegation and tcp_tables. However I have not managed to find much
(ANY???!!!) information on what the server responses should look like.
Although I don't yet know exactly what they look like, I have only seen
mention of accepting or rejecting emails at submission using SMTP Access
Policy delegation.

I really want to be able to generate, on a per message basis, the
behaviours that I currently have statically defined in a transport map.
These are:

    (condition1)   customtransport:

    (condition2)   smtp:[othernode]

Is this possible with either mechanism? What would the specific responses
be?

There is also a secondary issue: I'm trying to do load balancing here, but
the load balancing would be non-deterministic. I don't want the messages to
bounce around between nodes. While I could handle that based on the
helo_from= in SMTP Access Policy delegation, I don't believe this
information is available in tcp_tables. Assuming that the custom transport
is possible via tcp_table but NOT SMTP Access Policy delegation, how can I
ensure that a message only gets bumped to a peer once?

TIA

Colin
