Hello list! I have set up a dual postfix configuration: one cloud server and one server on-premises. The split: cloud-instance (metered): - exposed to the hostile environment - does quick/basic/low-effort filtering (blocks at the firewall IP ranges from which I do not expect anything of value; and does basic sanity checks) - tunnels the messages to the on-premises instance on-premises (unmetered): - check for existence of alias / mailbox - fancy anti-spam filtering (local AI) - delivery to mailbox (hosted within the trusted perimeter) It works well. Almost all spam goes to /dev/null or equivalent. HOWEVER, it could do better on a specific use case: some large senders commingle spam with ham. the message passes the cloud-instance because I cannot hard-block google, microsoft, salesforce, etc. and they only get qualified as spam on the on-premises instance. so my cloud instance gives them a 2yz while I would like to give them a 5yz to inform big tech that they are being abused. Is there a way to configure the cloud instance: - to wait for the receipt of a return code from the on-premises instance - and to return that code to the sender?
