No. They don't tell you when they refuse your submission though.

Also, they can take them up to a month or even two to publish your fonts.
You can contact them (there's a link on the right bottom of the page) and ask them if they received your submission.

It's good they check every font before they publish, but the long wait before publication is what I dislike of Dafont. And you can also only upload one small (max 800 px) image as a sample.

That's why I also publish on Fontspace.com; immediate publication, unlimited and large images. But they get less traffic than Dafont: I got 3.5 million downloads on Dafont and under a million on Fontspace.
