Hi David, |

Your setup looks fairly similar to my own, but I am intrigued by the |

differences. |

Can I ask you why? |

I have found the author of Dovecot to be wonderfully responsive, |
13 |
pushing out a fix for a deal-breaker issue for my site within hours of |
14 |
me reporting it. |

Can I ask you what the advantage of this is, please? |

Looking at the example at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_(mail_filtering_language) |

seems to do pretty much the same thing. |

The reject syntax seems nice and clear, but if the MX server (for your |
25 |
email's domain name) has already accepted the message then it's not |
26 |
really much good rejecting it. In fact, doing so is surely frowned |
27 |
upon, isn't it? |

As certainly would be the case with maildrop, and surely too with |
32 |
procmail? |
