Hello, I just used dnsstuff to test one of my domain names and it showed me (the first time only) that my server is an openrelay, which is obviously not true. This is due to the default behaviour of spamd of accepting everything, even when a spamd.alloweddomains file is present. I think this could choke some automated tests as nearly none of them goes to the point of actually sending data.
here is a well known spamd session: " telnet elrond.llorien.org 25 Trying 88.198.156.90... Connected to elrond.llorien.org. Escape character is '^]'. 220 elrond.llorien.org ESMTP ; Tue May 22 09:09:33 2007 ehlo test 250 Hello, spam sender. Pleased to be wasting your time. mail from:<> 250 You are about to try to deliver spam. Your time will be spent, for nothing. rcpt to:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 250 This is hurting you more than it is hurting me. " I know that I can configure spamd to send a 550 error to the client, but only after DATA, which will clearly almost never happen in automated tests. So I think it could probably be a good idea to add an option which makes the 550 reply at RCPT TO for domains not being in spamd.alloweddomains. This would still allow to make spamtraps but only those sent at alloweddomains would waste the most time to the sender. What are your feelings bout this?
