Hi Eric,
  Sorry I had not replied, must have missed seeing your response.
Yes you are right I was using the wrong sender address. Thank
you for pointing this out, I have now read the spamdyke explanation
as well.

chkuser does not use badmailfrom/badmailto. chkuser simply does some sanity 
checks.

badmailfrom/badmailto is part of qmail-smtpd itself (not sure if it's a patch 
or not).

Does that clear things up?

Hi Eric,
Not sure I understand your response here!
The badmailfrom is the file I am using yet
you are suggesting I use the "Deliver To"
address which I assumed was used in the Badmailto file?

Anyway here is the header...

I chose the @rolex.com as it was what is seen in the logs and using
vwatchall.

Extract from log
2010-11-29 09:58:14.937637500 CHKUSER accepted sender: from
<pv...@rolex.com::>
2010-11-29 10:08:20.529856500 CHKUSER accepted sender: from
<vy...@rolex.com::>

As can be seen from this that chkuser is accepting the @rolex.com but
then spamdyke refuses it!
My issue is, why does chkuser accept the sender when it is in the
badmailfrom list? If chkuser denied
the connection based on the rolex.com in badmailfrom them spamdyke would
not be called.

Hi folks,
I am trying, still, to block a number of emails in the Badmailfrom list.
Eric instigated the regex type expressions for me they entire operation
does not seem to be working.
I have some 150 addresses in the file and none of the are blocked.

Example
....@rolex\.com$
....@ozgameshop\.com$
\.yourfreeworld\.com$
eli...@gmail\.com$


The rolex one is the primary interest as it seems to get through no
matter what I do. Is it my regex expressions or does bamailfrom/
badmailto simply not work?

thanks...


To begin with, the .* at the beginning isn't needed. It will match
that without the specification, as there is no ^ indicating the
beginning of the string.

I'm wondering, are you looking at the correct recipient address? There
are 2, one on the 'envelope' and one on the message itself. These 2
addresses don't necessarily match, and often do not with spam. On the
messages that are getting though, take a look at the "Delivered To:"
header. This is the address that badmailfrom will filter.

Is that perhaps the problem you're having?
