I've been using .courier extensions for some time and have a certain one
that is getting spammed regularly that I'd like to reject mail to. I
currently have a .courier-default file for my account as well as a few
other .courier-whatever files with specific instructions. But what I'm
not sure is how I can reject mail to one given extension without getting
rid of .courier-default. I know I could create a .courier-badextension
with delivery instructions to /dev/null or such but I'd like to reject the
mail outright with a 5xx error right after the RCPT TO: is sent instead of
accepting the mail into the queue. Is this possible with .courier
instructions or should I be doing this in a rcptfilter?
For such cases I use a "spamtrap xy...@abc.com" entry in
/etc/courier/bofh .
I think with a filter solution a mail can only be rejected at smtp level
with a rcptfilter, because its immedeatly executed after RCPT TO.
localmailfilter man page:
When Courier receives an address naming a local mail recipient,
the local mail recipient’s mail filter is executed before Courier
acknowledges the address. The local mail filter tells Courier whether
to: A) accept message uncondition- ally - the message is whitelisted;
B) reject the message unconditionally - Courier tells the mail server
that the recip- ient address is invalid; or C) accept this recipient,
but run the content mail filter, once the message’s contents are
available
