Hello Guys,

I know this must have been answered before ... but i couldnt find
through the archives. So, let's go ....

Im using body_checks for having some PCRE rules for rejecting some
attachments, based on extensions. Simple rules, can be found in several
tutorials over the net.

But i have noticed that after hitting a rule on my PCRE file (reject
is logged on maillog), the message is still transfered until it ends,
thus NOT saving the bandwidth i would like to be saving with my
audio/video files blocking.

Question ... is this behavior OK ? I mean, receive the email until
its end even when a REJECT was reached on body_checks ?

If it's OK/required by RFC .... is there some postfix parameters to
immediate REJECT and closes SMTP connection, even if that's RFC
non-compliant behavior ?
