Nov 10 20:16:03 s001pcr fetchmail[6699]: Post von FETCHMAIL-DAEMON@s001pcr.pc-reaktor.de umgeleitet zu mail@xxxx.com
Nov 10 20:16:03 s001pcr fetchmail[6699]: SMTP-Lauscher verweigerte Auslieferung

sme totally rejects messages at the smtp level that exceed the rejection threshold score, so no notification is given.
If you wish to disable that behaviour set the
Custom spam rejection level = 0
and those messages with a score greater than 6 will then be moved to the junkmail folder (if enabled).

Hello Ray,

thank you for you`re replay!

Ok, Incoming mail with a score higher than 6 would i block. I don`t have local users an groups on the sme. The sme is only a mailgateway from isp to the Exchange. And on the exchange server i won`t only mails with a lower score of 6 points.

Can i whitelist my sme as localhost, that the smtp don`t reject mails for out-delivery from local network to ISP? The blocking feature is great, but without a notification not usable... Do you understand what i mean?

Great thanks for help and replay!

Oh, okay, sorry for my bad english.

My local network structure:

-- Internet, ISP pop3 service ---- Local Net SME --- Local Net Exchange

With fetchmail i become the mails from my Internetserver. Spamassassin checks the mail for spam an send it to my exchange. On the SME is no user. It`s a gateway!
My Options for Spam is: Identify as Spam: Score 3, Block Spam with a score higher than 6. Ok, right?
My goal is, that the SME bring Emails that blocked with a score higher than 6 back to the sender! But qmail blocks the further delivery. Can i "say" qmail, that outgoing emails have not to be blocked? Do you understand?

Hello Ray,

i have illustrated my intention. I hope that is clear for you. The problem is, the qmail don`t know, that he must not block mails for outgoing delivery with a score higher than 6...

I hope you understand my problem an my intention!

Many thanks for patience ;)

By specifying (in the email spam panel) that emails with a score higher than 6 get rejected, you have told sme smtp server to reject those messages completely ie not to accept them at all. If sme does not accept them then it cannot return them to the sender, it just gives an error message eg 553 message not accepted or similar (i'm not sure what error it is).

I think you are asking for functionality that is not in sme, unless one of the qpsmtpd plugins has some function like that, but I don't know.
