Hi,

I had the following happen today (localhost is my scanner daemon):

Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/cleanup[1796]: BF6C9AF9BE: message-id=<WITHHELD>
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/smtpd[1811]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/smtpd[1811]: BF6C9AF9BE:
client=localhost[127.0.0.1]
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/qmgr[3594]: BF6C9AF9BE: from=<WITHHELD>,
size=2041, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/smtpd[1811]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/pipe[10248]: BF6C9AF9BE: to=<WITHHELD>,
relay=dbmail-pipe, delay=0.15, delays=0.09/0.01/0/0.06, dsn=5.3.0,
status=bounced (Command died with signal 11: "/usr/sbin/dbmail-smtp")
Nov 29 11:04:17 Arzamas postfix/qmgr[3594]: BF6C9AF9BE: removed

After this a bounce was sent to the sender, and I received a system error
notification. However the email itself was permanently lost from the queue. Is
there a way to turn this sort of fatal failures into soft bounces, so I have a
chance to inspect the message that might have caused this?

Thank you

Peter
