Ahh, nice! A very good reason to check the local part at RCPT time rather than wait for the MDA to say "EX_NOUSER" and then send a bounce.
As I said, rejecting crap at the SMTP port is not my problem. Postfix can do that and will do that by default for Postfix-style virtual domains, but not for Sendmail-style virtual and real domains. Configure local_recipient_maps = $alias_maps unix:passwd.byname
Maybe it is temporary ... maybe you didn't update the virtual db yet? (just a thought. maybe right, maybe wrong, maybe right when the admin "oopses")
The MTA does not know, and it's not its business. Is the user there at the moment the mail is to be delivered: accept. It has no clairvoyance implemented usually and does not know which users might be added, so rejecting right away and permanently is right.
"Cannot access virtual users db" is another issue and that would warrant EX_TEMPFAIL. "Can access virtual users db but no such entry" is EX_NOUSER.
| Postfix also has, but why bother to look that same thing up twice? cdb | is cheap, SQL or LDAP is not.
Yeah, why should maildrop duplicate the lookup?
*shrug* Good question. What environment and cwd does maildrop expect for a virtual user? What will it figure itself? Would I use maildrop -M mumble for virtual users in this setup or no?
