As you know, I have been trying to get rbl working on this sytem. When I send
a message to nelson@??? I receive a return message stating
"Oops your rbl block is not working."
If I run exactly the same style of message faking a send from the ip address
of linux.crynwr.com and try mail from:<> and rcpt to:<anything> I
get 550: Blackholed ...
Perhapse I am doing something wrong but this behaviour appears inconsistant.
What options do I absolutely have to have set to reject people on the rbl?
I have:
rbl_domains=rbl.maps.vix.com
rbl_reject_recipients
Here is the sample session with -bh:
**** SMTP testing session as if from host 192.203.178.39
**** Not for real!
>>> looking up host name for 192.203.178.39
>>> host lookup yielded linux.crynwr.com
>>> RBL lookup: 39.178.203.192.rbl.maps.vix.com
LOG: recipients refused from linux.crynwr.com [192.203.178.39] (RBL rbl.maps.vix.com)

helo rbl.crynwr.com
250 bitbox.tamtafe.nsw.edu.au Hello linux.crynwr.com [192.203.178.39]
mail from:<>
250 <> is syntactically correct
rcpt to:khoath@???
