The other drawback of a tcpserv approach is that an intelligent spam sender software will handle it as temporary error (unable to create connection to smtp server) and will try again and again until the max queue lifetime of the mail is reached. With spamdyke blacklist it gets a permanent

The defaults are described in the text of each section in the README file but not in the table that shows all of the configuration options... I didn't realize that. The defaults are printed in the help screen when you run spamdyke -h. I'll add the defaults to the usage section of the README

Yes, but, by definition, any e-mail that is ALLOWED on a domain that has greylisting enabled, is an ALLOWED GREYLIST, since all e-mails would be greylisted prior to being allowed. :-) Sam's point about the e-mail possibly being sent sufficiently delayed that it is actually in a different log,

Good point, although, I would think an appropriate log tag would be ALLOWED GREYLIST_WHITELIST, not ALLOWED GREYLIST... And, that may have been mentioned in this thread at some point...The e-mails have been flying on this one! :-) Michael J. Colvin NorCal Internet Services www.norcalisp.com

You are correct -- authenticated connections should bypass graylisting and all other filters. If that isn't working, your users should be reporting lots of problems, because their MUAs (e.g. Outlook, Thunderbird) won't be able to deliver email to your server -- they'll get the graylist

Hi, I'd love to see sort of test mode. So I could i.e. enable log-ip-in-cc-rdns which would work the same way known reject-ip-in-cc-rdns works but without really denying matching connection. It shall just log it (i.e. as TEST_IP_IN_CC_RDNS) and that's it. That would be extremely useful to run on
