Hi,
I've got a problem with the ratelimit configuration. It just doesn't
work and it doesn't tell me why. Here's what I did:
> acl_smtp_mail = acl_check_mail
...
> acl_check_mail:
> # Rate limiting on all messages per host
> defer ratelimit = 50 / 5m / strict
> message = Sending rate exceeded. Try again later.
> log_message = Sending rate exceeded: $sender_rate/$sender_rate_period (max $sender_rate_limit)
>
> # Keep authenticated users under control
> deny authenticated = *
> ratelimit = 10 / 5m / strict / $authenticated_id
>
> # System-wide rate limit
> defer message = Sorry, too busy. Try again later.
> ratelimit = 100 / 10s / $primary_hostname
Most of this is derived from the official documentation on the topic.
Sending a message as authenticated user fails. The main log says that
the message was "rejected". Nothing more. Thunderbird suggests
"administrative problems" on the server.
What have I done wrong? How can it be corrected?
Exim 4.71 on Ubuntu 10.04.
