Using 1.8b9D11 We have a JV partner that misconfigured their Exchange box and got themselves blacklisted as an open relay. In the interim there are several people here that need to remain in contact with them, though our RBL use has thus far prevented it.
I explained the ramifications if I whiteholed their account, but they elected to try it anyway. Well suffice to say, they quickly changed their minds in horror after being deluged, and thanked me for our filtering. I figured I'd use setup a router entry to give them a second account name that they could give only to the JV partner that was whiteholed. so, assume the user has a local account "userA". I attempted to use the line "<userA-WH%*@blacklisted>=userA" However, even though using the router test field in D11, showed the string "userA-WH%mydomain.com@blacklisted" resolve to LOCAL[userA], when I actually try to deliver mail to that whiteholed account, it fails with a no such user account. I ended up having to create a local account with that name and have it forward to the users account with the mail list section. So Question #1 is why the above didn't work. Question #2. After finding the whitehole router line was failing due to no such account I attempted to remedy it with a second router line thusly: <userA-WH%*@blacklisted>=userA <userA-WH@*>=userA Except that the router didn't like that responding with: <userA-WH@**ERROR*>=userA Should the second line be a simple alias type entry and acceptable? - Regards, Craig Bowers ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
