Hi,
I am using Postfix + MySQL + Maildrop + Authdaemond
(with quota)
Sometimes when maildrop is continously piped from
Postfix a list of recipients (one by one), authdaemond
return TEMPFAIL (when against MySQL), then it seems
Maildrop does not retry and thus Postfix bounces.
Is this normal?
Many thanks,
Kai

Hi,
By default authdaemon with only mysql doesn't return TEMPFAIL on mysql
failure (that's why mails are bounced in postfix)
For that I use this small patch made by Matthew Reimer to maildrop/main.C:

int find_in_authlib(Maildrop *maildrop, const char* user)
It will make postfix/maildrop more robust on mysql failures.
