Hello!

Thank you for your answer. I try to use "<>" as sender address but
unfortunately some mail filters mark messages with null sender as spam, so I
need another method to disable Postfix Mail Delivery Report.

Is the a way to disable Postfix Mail Delivery Report completely or for some
senders only?


Regards, Aleksey

the way to do that is to use "<>" as the sender, not none@*. The null
sender is described in the RFC.

but then, don't use this as the From: header. the From: header is what
the user sees. so please make it nice...

Use the DSN option NOTIFY=NEVER.

Use "/usr/sbin/sendmail -N never ..." on the command line, "RCPT
TO:<mailbox-address> NOTIFY=NEVER" in SMTP, or see the example in
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_command_filter to
force NOTIFY=NEVER on SMTP commands.
