Just curious, why is it set up to only send one rejected email notification per day? [This is the code](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/5dbd6a304bed5400be481d71061d3e3ebb4d6785/lib/email/processor.rb#L75-L78). Limited use case, but may be nice to make that timespan configurable. Like new users who post too short of messages may benefit from a reminder of why their emails aren’t going through, instead of radio silence.

Thanks all.

This was done to prevent loops when sending rejection emails to (bad) auto responders. I agree we could losen the knot a bit here.
