Topic: Questions re Throttling

Hi,

I understand throttling as it relates to inbound and outbound email processing. I also am familiar where I set these limits per domain, per user in the iRedAdmin-Pro panel.

However what I am curious about is:

1) If a throttle limit is reach then how is one notified ?
2) Where can we check behind the scenes (eg: logs) when and for who throttling has occurred?
3) What happens to emails that exceed the throttle limit - are these queued or discarded ?

Regards,

Robert

Email will be rejected immediately.

iRedAPD will log this to log file /var/log/iredapd/iredapd.log.

How do you expect to know these? in iRedAdmin-Pro? Or email notification?
