message size & reports

Hi
i'm trying to limit the maximum message size on a user basis.

i've created a ruleset to set message size according to e-mail adress and
it's working fine
when a user sends a larger message then the allowed value, the recipient
gets a {Blocked Content} message with the following report from mail scanner
' MailScanner: Message is too large ', and the sender gets none.
so far so good, the limit is working fine.


the problem is i'd like the report to be sent to the sender instead of the
recipient.
(the sender gets the report, the recipient gets nothing)
i tried to figure out how to do it in the Mailscanner.conf file, but didn't
get there


by the way, when messages are oversized, does the mailserver recieve the
entire message or when the connection is made the message size is one of the
infos?

all advices are wellcome

TIA
Ricardo

PS: congratulations Julian
