 I ship a similar patch with Debian's qpsmtpd, for FHS compliance.  It varies

 for plugins in each -- this helps provide sysadmins with a safe spot to drop
 their own plugins or override the distributed ones without worrying about
 interfering with the package management.

Ah, that's even better, of course.

Extension of smtp-forward

2005-08-21 Thread Nils Israel

Hi,

I wrote an extension of the smtp-forward plugin which selects the smtp 
server from a list by the senders address or the senders domain. Since I 
use Net::SMTP_auth instead of Net::SMTP SMTP-Auth may be used.


Is someone interested in it?

Nils

Note this is why I implemented $Include.

 The RPM still contains five patches:
 
 * Gavins patch for an optional hashref argument to config. This is
   needed for the greylisting plugin, and it stops an endless recursion
   somewhere.
   (Gavin, I removed support for { cache = 0 } from this patch.
   AFAICS it wasn't used anywhere)

Peter, it's used by my per_user_config plugin. It's use to allow the 
cache to be selectively disabled e.g. if you're running per-user configs
with 1000s of users and don't want to tradeoff the RAM. So I think it
should stay. 

I pinged Ask about this too - he asked me to send the patches to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] so they make it into the bug tracker and don't get
overlooked again - that's probably the right thing to do with yours too.

Cheers,
Gavin

  You are supposed to create a DNS whitelist, i.e., a domain which
  contains information about IP adresses in a similar way to the
  in-addr.arpa. domain. For example, you could create
  whitelist.bittwiddlers.com with a zone file like this:
 
  $TTL 1h
  @   SOA abuse.bittwiddlers.com 1 10800 3600 604800 86400
  151.116.65.216  TXT John
  53.103.143.216  TXT GD AIS
  240.56.239.216  TXT gmail mproxy
  241.56.239.216  TXT gmail mproxy
  242.56.239.216  TXT gmail mproxy
 
  The whitelist_zones file then only contains the single line
  whitelist.bittwiddlers.com, which will cause the plugin to query
  151.116.65.216.whitelist.bittwiddlers.com if John is connecting.
 
 
 Ah, ok.  That helps and I didn't realize that was the intent.  I'll give
 that a try

The whitelist_soft plugin will do what you want with your current configs:
