Well, I've reworked my entire system after that last little fiasco with a lost config file after reboot. I didn't even think to check if two config files were floating around. Thanks for pointing that out.
New question: Now that I reconfigured and reinserted support for Spamhaus, I haven't seen Exim block an email even though I've seen plenty of emails coming in from domains listed in zen.spamhaus.org
Under acl_check_rcpt I have:
deny
message = X-Warning: $sender_host_address is listed at $dnslist_domain ($dnslist_value: $dnslis
t_text)
log_message = $sender_host_address is listed at $dnslist_domain ($dnslist_value: $dnslist_text)
dnslists = zen.spamhaus.org
Nothing shows up in the logs that any email was blocked because it's on the RBL. Here's a log example of a domain that is on the RBL but exim never blocked:
2009-07-12 13:29:54 H=118-169-198-20.dynamic.hinet.net (
www.hello.com) [118.169.198.20] F=<mike87694@???> rejected RCPT <candy59839@???>: relay not permitted
2009-07-12 13:29:55 unexpected disconnection while reading SMTP command from 118-169-198-20.dynamic.hinet.net (
www.hello.com) [118.169.198.20]
It only failed because it was an attempt at a relay.
So is there a way to double check that Exim is querying the RBL?
Thanks
