Hi,

I am trying to config Postfix in a way that it queues emails larger than 100Kb until for example 02:00am. After this time there is no limit to email size. From 08:00 am the limit of 100kb is active again.

Anyone knows how to achieve this ?

I tried the following:
I made two different main.cf files, one for normal use, one for the limited mail size.
I put the message_size_limit = 102400 directive in the main.cf and put soft_bounce = yes
I hoped that larger mails bounced, but stayed in the queue. But unfortenately the message was rejected right away by the server.

Thank you in advance for all help,
Jeroen
