[Greylist-users] Getting greylisting going on a new Debian

[Steven Jones]

OK,

this is what I did,

checking the .pl,
8><----
my $config_file = "/etc/mail/relaydelay.conf";
8><----

ls -l,

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root  smmsp    53 2008-05-31 17:25 relaydelay.conf -> /etc/mail/greylisting/relaydelay-0.04/relaydelay.conf
hermes:/etc/mail#

I am sending the mail via Thunderbird, but also via the command line on the mailserver itself using "mail", either way I get the failure,

"mail thing" shows,

Ok,

cleaning up the database,

mysql> delete from relaytofrom where relay_ip IS NULL ;
Query OK, 12 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> select * from relaytofrom;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

So its empty.....

INSERT INTO relaytofrom (relay_ip, record_expires, create_time)
VALUES ('127.0.0.1', '9999-12-31 23:59:59', NOW());

so we get this,

mysql> select * from relaytofrom;

edit relaydelay.conf as advised,
8><----------
#   senders as local in case we are acting as a smarthost for them.
#ssj $reverse_mail_tracking = 1;
$reverse_mail_tracking = 0;

restart sendmail.
