Sure. [Note to other readers: this RBL domain is internal to the
JANET network, under their subscriptions arrangements with MAPS].
Starting from the end, and working backwards from the relevant
clauses of what we use hereabouts... Something like this in the RCPT
ACL:
deny hosts = +rbl_hosts
message = This host is listed in the spam blacklist$dnslist_domain.\n \
Please contact your local postmaster regarding this blacklisting.\n\
If your message is genuine and urgent, contact postmaster@{...}
dnslists = rbl-plus.mail-abuse.ja.net:\
spews.relays.osirusoft.com:\
proxies.relays.monkeys.com
(insert your own domain as {...} )
Note that messages addressed to postmaster need to bale out earlier
with a clause something like this (you might first want to use a
"warn" clause to cut an x-something header which you will later test
to bypass spam-scanning etc.):
accept local_parts = postmaster : abuse
domains = +local_domains : +relay_domains
In the main configuration part we'd have defined these lists
hostlist rbl_hosts = +include_unknown : ! 127.0.0.1 : \
! host : ! host ... : \
*
where the hosts are local IPs or any other IP or DNS domains that you
want to exclude from the RBL checking.
The definitions of local_domains and relay_domains are presumably
obvious, yes?
good luck (YMMV and IMHO, as always)
