Hi, i have a working qmail installation from netqmail and recently included chkuser (very nice!). I want to use the CHKUSER_RCPTLIMIT and CHKUSER_WRONGRCPTLIMIT variables to block spam because they work very nice in my system, but the problem is that i don't want to apply these limits to the authenticated clients, so they can send mail with lot of recipients and even whit wrong recipient so they receive a bounced message. (if they get an error when sending they just think, o! the server is not working, lets call the provider). So, i tried whit #define CHKUSER_SENDER_NOCHECK_VARIABLE "RELAYCLIENT" but it doesn't works. It only disables sender checking or also the limits? how i can disable the limits only for authenticated clients? any idea?
Actually I'm using a separate qmail-smtpd server for authenticated users (i.e. relay.mydomain.com), on a dedicated IP address.
This solves the most of my problems, as in this way I can make the deepest customization I can, and I keep separated normal MX traffic and relaying traffic.
In this dedicated server for authenticated users I think it could be even better not to enable CHKUSER, so normal users with Outlook will receive normal error messages instead of short SMTP responses.
