mh, so any clues why i could be reported? i am only running 3 domains. they are in rcpthosts and local.

e.g from the log:

Nov 2 11:30:26 **CHANGED** qmail: 1288693826.606898 CHKUSER accepted rcpt: from remote rcpt : found existing recipient

the user ocflhmgnpc is not a valid user and the recipient domain is local (**CHANGED**)

@A.J. : qmail from Dotdeb includes chukuser and it’s enabled by default.

Sorry for the wrong comment section.

My box has been reportet to spamcop as “Misdirected bouncer”, using the dotdeb-qmail.

Does dotdeb-qmail have any of these patches applied?

Then we’ll have to add entries for 216.239.32 up to 216.239.63 for 216.239.32.0/19.

Would be easier to just add 216.239.32.0/19, but we’ll survive.

Thanks

According to the documentation of the patch, the correct syntax is :

# Example wildcard whitelists for subnets
insert into relaytofrom values (0,”127.0.0.1″ ,NULL,NULL,”0000-00-00 00:00:00″,”9999-12-31 23:59:59″,0,0,0,”MANUAL”,NOW(),NOW());
insert into relaytofrom values (0,”192.168″ ,NULL,NULL,”0000-00-00 00:00:00″,”9999-12-31 23:59:59″,0,0,0,”MANUAL”,NOW(),NOW());

Is it possible to describe ip ranges in relay_ip char(16) like 216.239.32.0/19 ?

We need to whitelist/update with IP addresses that Google Mail, Hotmail etc. uses to send mail.

With 16 char field that isn’t possible, but can we change this?

Thanks.
