 Why an lsearch* for virtual_domains?  Aah, I see, so that you can make
 [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] all work with a *.domain.com?
 I never thought of having that work like that - I like it.  Am I
 correct in this?

Yes, though you have to implement a fallback strategy: 
if /etc/mail/aliases/bar.example.com doesn't exist, /.../example.com should 
be used.

 I am also interested in this thread, but I find some parts obscure.
 Would you please be more explicit in the following

  * put this into /etc/exim4/conf.d/router/160_local_virtual_users
  * add a domainlist virtual_domains =  ... to conf.d/main/

 that is, what is the syntax for '...' ? would that be
 'domainlist virtual_domains =  site1.net:site2.com' ?

Yes. This list holds all domains for which you want to do these aliases.


  /etc/mail/aliases/$domain contains local_part - local_part and
  local_part - [EMAIL PROTECTED] mappings.

 and
 /etc/mail/aliases/$domain would be a directory with multiple files,
 symlinks, one file in tabular form?

for each domain in virtual_domains you need one aliases-style file to map 
localparts (string in front of the @) from this domain to real email 
adresses.

for example, on my mail server:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/mail/aliases/black.co.at 
 postmaster: david
 abuse: david
 david: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

I also have my virtual_domain list in a file:
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep 
virtual_domains /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/01_exim4-config_listmacrosdefs 
 domainlist virtual_domains = lsearch*;/etc/mail/virtual-domains
 

You also want to go through the acl/ section and add the virtual_host list to 
all domain= tests which test for local_domains.

Legal aspects of greylisting in Europe

2004-12-04 Thread David Schmitt
Hi list!

Has anyone considered how greylisting should be viewed in the light of
european data-protection laws? Especially in Austria it would probably
conflict with the requirement to keep connectiondata no longer than
required for billing.

 So the effect would be, that succeeding messages fitting the triple would
 be relayed without any delay.
 
 By the way I see also no problem with actual laws in Europe.
 (But I'm also no lawyer! ;)

Indeed the triple containing email addresses of both the sender and the
recipient are stored far longer than necessary for billing reasons or do
you bill by number of recieved messages?



Hmm .. could one alternativly use the mails the user saved as a source
of whitelisting?
