In server.tab "SMTP-RDNSCheck" "-2" That's as much as I dare give it as otherwise I tend to lose wanted emails when senders DNS is bad and their mta is too impatient. I also put longer timeouts, or even "code=0", on a per ip block basis in spammers.tab for ip blocks I'm not expecting to be sending me email. "61.58.0.0" "255.255.0.0" "code=-5" David - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
