With sendmail, I used to be able to do this:
# /etc/mail/access
# We can route mail based on sender
#cyberspammer.com 550 We don't accept mail from spammers
#okay.cyberspammer.com OK
#128.32 RELAY
#savetrees.com DISCARD
#36 550 Stanford University? We eat trees for lunch
#FREE.STEALTH.MAILER@ 550 Spam not accepted
#
# And on receipient
#
#badlocaluser 550 Mailbox disabled for this username
#host.mydomain.com 550 That host does not accept mail
#user@??? 550 Mailbox disabled for this recipient
With exim, I read chapter 46.5 which explains how to send back a specific
error message for each type of rejection, but I haven't found a way of
sending back a custom reject for each host.
For instance, I use the following directives in exim:
sender_reject = partial-lsearch;/etc/mail/checksender/refusesenders
host_reject_recipients = +allow_unknown:/etc/mail/checksender/hostreject
In my lookup tables, right now, I only have one value, and it would be
awesome if the key could actuall be a custom reject message like this
# /etc/mail/checksender/hostreject
# Hosts listed in this file are not allowed to send mail to us. List IP ads only
# (otherwise you'll trigger a DNS request for each connection)
207.38.123.83 "You found it funny to mailbomb us, eh? Go die now"
:-)
I don't think this is yet possible, and the system filter happens too late
to reject the mail during the SMTP transaction.
Is there a way to emulate what I was doing with sendmail, or not currently?
Thanks,
Marc
