Hi,
Just a quick sendmail question, I have the following in /etc/mail/access
from when I was playing around:
earthlink.net REJECT
Yet I just received a spam that arrived via earthlink...
Received: from vulture.prod.itd.earthlink.net (vulture.prod.itd.earthlink.net
[207.217.121.36])
by denim.sensation.net.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA02469
for <rowan@sensation.net.au>; Thu, 17 Feb 2000 17:23:18 +1100 (EST)
Am I misunderstanding the syntax for this access file? Does it need to be
an IP address/range or a full hostname?
(Yes, I did makemap and access.db is up to date)
Note - I have an external MX which doesn't have any spam prevention, I
presume this will bypass any REJECTs since the spammer will deliver to the
external MX, but in this case it arrived straight at my first MX.
Cheers.
