I've been using Declude with SmarterMail for about six weeks. I'm generally
pleased with the results except for some minor problems.
Two problems that I've run into that I can't seem to get resolution from

Yes.
Older version of Tobit Infocenter has failed CMDSPACE. I've send them some
informations about the effectiveness of the CMDSPACE test and as I know they
have changed their MTA in never release
A few questions that may help shed light on the problem...
Which versions of IMail and Declude are you running?
Do the logs in DEBUG mode show anything regarding the DNS lookups?
Can you do these DNS lookups manually at a command prompt on the server?

I think you have this backwards: the hang-up here isn't Declude, it's

This is not an oversight in Declude as the functionality is there in imail
but in SmarterMail not passing the auth info to Declude.
There is nothing Declude can do until SmarterMail supplies the data to
Declude.
Declude and SmarterMail have both stated it will be available with
SmarterMail 3.x
Uh, it is not a Declude issue but rather SmarterMail does not support it.

That is a big gaping hole in my opinion. Guess I'll look for another
solution as I don't think I can wait for declude to get around to fixing
this oversight.

Check out http://www.invariantsystems.com for utilities for Declude And
Imail. IMail/Declude Overflow Queue Monitoring, SURBL/URI integration, MRTG
Integration, and Log Parsers.
Biggest issues is the lack of WHITELIST AUTH. I confirmed last week with
SMarterMail that that functionality will be available in the 3.0 version du

Right, we only see it from Outlook and Outlook Express clients that send
