[Maia-users] disabled user still gets email stored

[Eugene Pefti]

Sorry guys, for being stupid,

I found this "re-send" option, it is actually called "Deliver this mail"
and it is accessible when you go into the mail.
Other than that everything is all right.
Thanks again.

Eugene

While it would be best not to use the user autocreation feature in this
case, there's an ugly little hack that may be of use to you.  I can't
guarantee that it still works, but at one time I added support for a
setting in the amavisd.conf file called "no_autocreate_domains".  The
purpose of this setting was to let the administrator specify a list of
domain names that should not be autocreated, but it also worked for
specific email addresses, so if you added "joe at example.com" to this list
it would prevent that address from being auto-created.

The setting should be available in a number of different forms:

As an array:

  @no_autocreate_domains_acl = qw( joe at example.com );
  @no_autocreate_domains_acl = qw( joe at example.com joe at example.net );

As a hash lookup, read from a text file, with one entry per line:

  read_hash(\%no_autocreate_domains, '/var/amavisd/no_autocreate_list');

As a regular expression:

  $no_autocreate_domains_re = new_RE( qr'[Jj]oe at example.com$'i );

I should stress that this is a very old and obscure feature that hasn't
been regression-tested in recent versions of amavisd-maia, so it may no
longer work.  I still see the code for it in the latest version, though,
so it may be a solution for you.
