Hi all,
2 questions:

- is it psosible with rspamd to rate limit ougoing emails?


- is it possible to serialize outgoing emails per mx? 
This feature is missing, natively, in Postfix.
PowerMTA has and they call it "MX rollup"

Thank you in advance
Marco

You should take a look at cbpolicyd for rate limiting, a google search will get you all the details. I'm not sure if rspamd has this feature but I'm sure someone will correct me if it has. :)

Regards

Hi Marco,

> - is it psosible with rspamd to rate limit ougoing emails?

It's possible. The `user` keyword applies a global ratelimit
per-authenticated-user. Rates for individual users are possible using
custom keywords. If you don't use authentication but can identify
distinct streams of outbound mail somehow it is probably still workable.

See https://rspamd.com/doc/modules/ratelimit.html - especially
sections about composable and user-defined ratelimits.

Not clear to me what this is; seems to be MTA feature. Rspamd can send
a signal to your MTA that it should perform some certain task but that
is all.

Best,
