Re: [qmailtoaster] How to add spf on qmailtoaster...

2008-02-07 Thread Dan McAllister 
SPF is compiled into and enabled by default in the QMail Toaster. You 
can control the behavior of the SPF function with the numeric value in 
the file /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior. The default value is 3, which 
is to say that:
a) if a domain uses SPF (and you SHOULD), then the SPF rules will be 
enforced

b) if a domain does NOT use SPF, then no blocking will occur.

A complete description of the spfbehavior levels is here: 
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Spfbehavior


Eventually (when someone decides SPF should be required -- whomever 
"someone" is, I don't know), the number we put in there will climb to a 
4 or 5. But for now, the "agreed upon best use" level is the 3 that the 
toaster puts in there as a default. (NOTE: To turn OFF SPF, just change 
the value to a 0).


NOTE: The value in the /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior can be overwritten 
by the presence of an environment variable SPFBEHAVIOR (if used, it is 
probably being set in your tcp rules file (/etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp). 
So, if you change it but nothing happens differently (not sure if a 
QMail restart is required when it changes), then look for the ENV variable.


Another NOTE (and I think this may help someone who a few days ago was 
talking about changing the tcp.smtp file and the changes not working)... 
if you change the contents of /etc/tcprules.d (including the tcp.smtp 
file), you must RE-COMPILE the files to have them take effect. The 
command is simple:

# qmailctl cdb

I hope someone finds this useful

Best Regards,

Dan

Greylisting is easy with spamdyke. Add the greylist dir path to 
spamdyke conf, then make the greylist dir. Afterwards you make 
subdirectories for each domain (ie example.com). If greylisting 
doesn't work, you probably need to change properties on the dirs you 
created to allow access.

Re: [qmailtoaster] How to add spf on qmailtoaster...

2008-02-08 Thread Dan McAllister 
OK... I think we have a disconnect here... there is no greylisting with 
SPF -- if you're being blocked by SPF, change your DNS record to 
indicate that you're SPF an approved sender. If you're looking at 
greylisting, you're probably talking about spamdyke, or another spam 
filter -- but not SPF. (the log file you show below confirms you're 
using spamdyke)


For a better understanding of SPF, read on at  
http://www.openspf.org/Introduction


For a better look at SpamDyke, see http://www.spamdyke.org/
or, specifically 
http://www.spamdyke.org/documentation/README.html#GRAYLISTS for how to 
use greylisting in SPAMDYKE.


I hope this helps... SOMEONE!
