    Yahoo now fails on greylisting?

    It's looking like Yahoo has quit responding correctly to greylisting, now returning a fatal error to the sender: <nosuch.user@[one of our domains]>: Remote host said: 450 4.7.1 <nosuch.user@[one of our domains]>: Recipient address rejected: Service is unavailable (try later) [RCPT_TO] In our...

    How to disable daemon autostart?

    As we prepare for an upgrade, I want to take the smtpd offline on one of my cluster nodes. I can stop smptd easily enough in System gui, but "autostart" remains checked and greyed out, and the daemon restarts automatically on reboot. How can I disable that? This is 2.5/4478, and the node is the...

    quarantine management doesn't preserve username case

    The administrator notifications generated by Notify Admin action don't contain a link, they're just plain text messages. For quarantined outbound messages we get the admin notifications and take action transparently to the sender and receiver. So we're cutting and pasting the receiver address...

    quarantine management doesn't preserve username case

    My actual issue is that the exact name that appears in the notification cannot be used to locate the message in the quarantine management interface; this cost us some time yesterday trying to find a message in quarantine so we could release it. Superficially the fixes mught be either (a) use the...

    quarantine management doesn't preserve username case

    Hi, We've just noticed that the quarantine management system does not preserve case of the username portion of the address; e.g. e-mail for Joe.User@ourdomain and joe.user@ourdomain are both quarantined under the all-lowercase name, even though case is preserved in the message as delivered and...

    How to check connectivity to Razor and DCC networks?

    In response to a recent notable increase in passed spam (just us? or is it conficker bots ramping up?) I looked at our spam detector settings and noted that Use DCC Network is off. I've turned it on. But in other postings here I see the advice to "test connection to Razor and DCC networks". How...

    "match field" wildcards/regexp in What object?

    OK, will do, but would it be simpler to allow a "body" or "rawbody" field spec in the existing What object?

    "match field" wildcards/regexp in What object?

    Against the *original* mail, you say ... so a header that I add in one proxmos action is not visible to any following proxmox rule? Obviously that stymies my current plans. (I'm using proxmox action "Modify Spam Level" to add the x-spam-level header, and this is working fine, I can see my...

    "match field" wildcards/regexp in What object?

    How is the "match field" object interpreted, as in, does it take wildcards, or is it a regexp? I'm trying to take special action if a particular (custom) spamassassin rule has been met. I've added X-SPAM-LEVEL header to all messages, which lists the code names of the spamassassin rules. If I...

    any way to throttle spam reports? and "force" empty proxspamreport?

    We'd like to slow down the spam reports that get generated each midnight; the large number of them is causing load alarms on our internal mail router. Some method of limiting them to so-many-per-minute would be good. Also, having just discovered the proxspamreport command, is there a way to...

    "match field" item for message body?

    Is there a "match field" field name for the message body? I want to create a What object that identifies certain phrases in outgoing message bodies; in this case, the message subject will not be sufficiently distinctive. At least, I think I want to do this ... will this be an unacceptable...

    Recently-announced BIND vulnerability?

    Is there a planned hotfix to include the recently-released BIND patches for the cache-poisioning attack that has been announced? (http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113). Chip C Toronto

    Blacklisted "domain" applied to relay?

    If I add a domain to the proxmox blacklist, does it match mail from a relay whose name is in that domain? Or does it just apply to a "from" address? Case in point, I've decided I want to block mail from an ISP's dynamic hosts; the addresses span a large number of non-contiguous network blocks...

    Sligh difference in 2.0->2.1 upgrade vs. fresh ISO install?

    Aha! that explains it. I will apply the Service Pack during a quiescent period planned for this coming weekend. Thanks!

    Sligh difference in 2.0->2.1 upgrade vs. fresh ISO install?

    Our production host was installed as Proxmox Mail Gateway 2.0 last October and was upgraded remotely by Proxmox support to 2.1 in November. Our in-development second host, recently licensed, was installed from the 2.1 ISO which I downloaded recently. I have manually populated it with the...
