I presume you're talking about a spamassassin whitelist, not a spamdyke 
whitelist. They are very different in what they accomplish.


Spamassassin process any *.cf file in the /etc/mail/spamassassin 
directory, so if you put your whitelist.cf file there, it will be 
processed. However, spamassassin has no idea what it is you're 
whitelisting (as opposed to a spamdyke whitelist file, which is specific 
to an aspect such as sender, rDNS, IP, etc. that's being whitelisted). 
So with SA you need to include the directive which specifies what it is 
that's being whitelisted. It would look like:

whitelist_from *@example.com

Note, this option is not recommended. whitelist_from_rcvd is preferred, 
See

Thanks for the opinion, but it's not relevant. There are spam controls

These are not the result of a compromised LAMP server.

To all,

I have a server that is having some problems with some apache 
services.The machine appears to have a runaway process that takes up 
just over 20% of the CPU, but this is enough to stop all mail and to a

The problem for me is this machine is at a remote site. When this 
process runs away, I cannot connect to the network remotely, to 
resolve the issue, I need to get someone internally to log on to the 
server itself and kill the process.


When I say Apache, that is the user listed against the process, so 
it must be some form of web service.The command at fault is either 
std or s, although I have seen a perl command giving issues as 
well, but not to the same effect.


Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?Or what I can do to 
rectify?





Not really Qmailtoaster related, but it sounds like you have a web app 
that has been compromised. There was a big issue with Roundcube webmail 
that allowed this to happen a year or so ago. Might be similar 
circumstances.

 If you haven't changed anything recently, that would seem to indicate a
 problem at/from yahoo, or something amiss with DNS at any rate.

 I seem to recall that MX records cannot point to CNAME records (MX must
 point to type A record), so it seems odd that CNAME lookup is even being
 done. Just a thought.

 This is a DNS lookup failure.
 Have any DNS records for the domain changed recently? Perhaps the time
 field wasn't updated?

 We really can't help much with diagnosis w/out knowing the domain name.

 Given that courier will be replaced by dovecot in the long term, I doubt it.

When I do

I see that the TTL for this record is 60 seconds, which is unusually

Ok, I'll take a guess. When you use whitelist_from_rcvd, you need to 
specify the email address, as well as the rDNS name of the server which 
sent it. I'm guessing that you omitted the 2nd parameter (rDNS name).

OK,  I see what happened.  I didn't read down far enough on the
spamassassin instruction sheet.

Worked perfectly.

Thanks,

Re: [qmailtoaster] /Remote_host_said:_250_ok_dirdel/

2011-01-13 Thread Tony White

Hi Jake,
Well yes I have tried all you suggested but Yahoo are
as usual not very responsive.
Strange thing is I sent an email to my own test account
and it got there in seconds and no dirdel.
After much more digging, waste f time really, I found out
that users have the option to spam everything then allow.
So I can only assume that the user has this set and does
remember to check him Spam Box!
As a slight aside I sent a copy of the Yahoo settings to the
user in question. His secretary kindly sent me an email telling
me that for some unknown reason all was working again and
thanked me for curing the issue with my server!

Go figure! Must have been an EBKAC or PICNIC, HoHo!

EBCAK error between chair keyboard
PLBCAK problem lies between chair keyboard
PICNIC problem in chair, not in computer
PEBKAC problem exists between keyboard chair
EBKAC error between keyboard chair
PLBKAC problem lies between keyboard chair

Hi folks,
It appears there are still issues with Yahoo! My mail server

/Remote_host_said:_250_ok_dirdel/ every time.
My NZ clients are complaining again and I cannot seem to find
either the issue or a resolution.
Does anyone have an ideas please? I have searched the web
but the responses are not very helpful!

Thanks in advance!

ok would imply delivery. Have you attempted to contact the other service's administrator for more information? Maybe
try a telnet session from your mail server to see if there is anything additional there in the session.

[qmailtoaster] re: ssl certificate

I have searched but cannot find an answer.

I have an account that is giving me this error (Error code:
sec_error_reused_issuer_and_serial)

I have deleted the certificates in my e mail client Thunderbird to no
avail.  I would like to create new certificates on my toaster, but
cannot find instructions on how to do so.   I am only using a self
signed certificate.

I don't know where the quick-n-dirty instructions came from. I don't 
have a /usr/share/sll/certs directory on my QMT host. They might work 
using the /etc/pki/tls/certs directory, where I have used make to create 
certs and cert requests. For QMT though, I've used the instructions 
above the QnD ones.


Apparently that page could use some work.

Sorry about the premature send.

Well no luck sorting out the issue.   It doesn't appear to be
Thunderbird only.  The Sea Monkey e mail client does the same thing.  I
know the IMAP is working correctly because I can login via Squirelmail.

Here is the error message I'm getting. hopefully someone can shed some

reduce the number of connection to no avail.  Any ideas?

Yes you are right. It is not a compromise.

 Thanks for the opinion, but it's not relevant. There are spam controls in
 place already, and these are registered people making changes. Don't know
 how you would work around that and still keep it open for the community to
 edit.
 These are not the result of a compromised LAMP server.

Do you still need a SSL how-to written for courier?
Look in your courier/imap logs to see if anything else is going on 
there. Also try ps aux | grep imap and netstat -tap | grep imap to 
see the current connections. Once we're sure the backend is okay, we can 
look at the front end.

I use Thunderbird with QMT IMAP (SSL/TLS) without any issues.
