disconnect keywords
anyone using these:
disconnectrecipientlimit 12
disconnectrejectlimit 4
disconnecttransactionlimit
disconnectbadcommandlimit 3
do you think those are ok values? what sort of value would be good for tx limit?
do these belong in tcp_local to block incoming junk?
thanks,
s7

do the values i have seem ok? do others use these functions? with any success?
what does disconnecttransactionlimit mean?
i would appreciate any detailed explanation of each of these - the doc decscribes them pretty consisely.
any others built-ins like these i could be using? i also use the mail dns verify.

Honestly, I've not found a reason to use any of these keywords in my system.I'm assuming you're trying to control mailing lists spam. I use SpamAssassin, and find it nearly perfect for that.

i'm using SA and ClamAV+clamsmtpd - however, i'd like to catch these spammer smtp traits with all the tools available (unless the processing expense, etc. is not worthwhile).
any clue as to what the disconnecttransactionlimit is?
would still like layman definitions for each keyword - so i'm clear on what they do, and to know if the values i mentioned are appropriate. anyone ...

disconnecttransactionlimit limits the number of "transactions" per connection. Messages. It will disconnect after the limit is reached. Most clients understand, and will simply reconnect to continue. Not sure how much use this will be for you.
