Hi,
we have some problems sending mail to greylisting servers.
Trying test@??? shows, that our outgoing server does not
retry sending the mail if the first attempt returned an 4xx error.
Output of exim_dumpdb:
$ exim_dumpdb /var/spool/exim4 retry | grep allaboutspam
T:mx.allaboutspam.com:96.126.107.60:1VOnUR-0002Lg-BV -46 13389 SMTP
error from remote mail server after end of data: host
mx.allaboutspam.com [96.126.107.60]: 452 Greylisted. Please try again
after some time.
But "exim_fixdb /var/spool/exim4 retry"
Modifying Exim hints database /var/spool/exim4/db/retry
R:test@???
record R:test@??? not found
has no record for this address.
exim4.conf.template has:
begin retry
* * F,8h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,7d,6h
Should retry sending at least for 8 hours every 15 minutes.
exim queue runs are configured every 5 minutes:
$ exiwhat
7839 daemon: no queue runs, listening for SMTP on port 25 (IPv6 and IPv4)
7841 daemon: -q5m, not listening
What's wrong here?
Greetings,
