Topic: Throttle outbound quota

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release):  0.9.9 MARIADB edition
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer?
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Debian
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): Nginx
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro?: iRedAdmin-Pro
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.


Hi,

1) Once throttle outbound quota exceeds user not able to sends email from any mail client (outlook, Thunderbird) and bounce back with below mention error
'Server error: '554 5.7.1 <abc@abc.com> Recipient address rejected: Quota exceeded'

It is confusing to users, users considering mail box quota get full.

please let me know how to modify this error message or exact location of file.

I want to set error message like below
'Server error: '554 5.7.1 <abc@abc.com> Recipient address rejected: Outgoing Quota exceeded'.


2) I have notice that when throttle outbound quota exceeds the limit, then mail client (outlook, Thunderbird) are not able send emails however users using soho are able to send. So it seems that the outbound throttle does not apply to the localhost ip.
How do I change this so the restrictions apply to sogo (webmail) users too.

Thanks
Sunil

You're right, the message is not clear enough. You can change it in file /opt/iredapd/libs/__init__.py.
Note: the message is applied to both incoming and outgoing throttling, so you should make it clear in both cases. What message are you going to use? smile

Could you please show me output of command "postconf smtpd_recipient_restrictions"?

Re: Throttle outbound quota

In "smtpd_recipient_restrictions", the rule "check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:7777" is checked before "permit_mynetworks", so email sent from SOGo should apply the throttle setting too.

Could you please turn on debug mode in iRedAPD and trigger the issue again? We need the log for troubleshooting.
FYI: https://docs.iredmail.org/debug.iredapd.html

Re: Throttle outbound quota

this is the generic message that we are using

REJECT Permissible limit of number of outgoing or incoming mails has Exceeded (Please Contact Server Administrator)

Re: Throttle outbound quota

Hi Rajesh,

Please try this patch for iRedAPD-3.5, it should fix the issue. Let me know how it works for you.
https://github.com/iredmail/iRedAPD/com … 93fdb61f99

The cause is SOGo doesn't perform SMTP authentication while sending email, hence we have to hack iRedAPD to handle this situation.

Re: Throttle outbound quota

Is there a way to force sogo to SMTP authenticate. This is most important for us since we are also not allowing emails to be sent unless SMTP authentication and envelope sender matches.

Thanks
Rajesh

Re: Throttle outbound quota

Tell sogo team you need smtp auth:
