Can someone clarify the following?
Note that I'm using Postfix as mail server.
Thanks

Hi Frank,
Well it all depends where the 552 code is issued and from my
understanding this is
somewhat of a bug in the original RFC 821 specifictaion.
Sometimes 552 code means its a temporary failure and other time its a
permanent failure.
As you can see below, the "250 Ok" is issue and that is the reason the
mail is requeued
after the it has failed because 552 code was issue later on.
Out: 250 Ok
In: MAIL FROM:<veitayaki_j(_at_)usp(_dot_)ac(_dot_)fj> SIZE=4070400
Out: 250 Ok
cheers
Satendra.
Further to our previous messages requesting to stop this particular
e-mail,
it seems that maya is not SMTP compliant as upon receiving a 5xx error
code
it should stop immediately the transaction, but it does not...
cf: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0821.txt
Please fix maya mail server.
Cheers.
