Got it, now that you point it out it is *obvious*!

In my case example, it is 'senders', which is either an e-mail address or a wild-carded address.

I think the 'IP list' would then mean IPs and not sender addresses.. But hey, exim -bh is what you need, with SMTP commands..

Is the blacklisted_senders only an ip list?  or can tld���s be entered there as well?  same for whitelisted_senders?

Hi Gordon,

I think it's better done at acl_check_rcpt thus:

# Blacklisted Senders

deny   message       = Users have complained that you send unsolicited mail.\n\You're therefore blacklisted.\n\

                                   Please contact abuse@crownkenya.com

            senders       = ${if exists {/etc/exim/blacklisted_senders}{/etc/exim/blacklisted_senders}{}}

However, it would have been better of the domain admin could maintain this list via the web UI.

Hi Odhiambo,

For Exim4U's exim.conf,  it should go in acl_check_content which runs immedately after the smtp session's data submission.  We've got facilities for blacklisting IP addresses and I don't see a problem with adding blacklisting for sender addresses and domains.  Here is another example:

Let me know if you have specific ideas on how you think this should be implemented.

Thanks,

Gordon

Right now I am using system filter to deal with some bad senders and sender_domains, but I am wondering if we can have such functionality included in the main exim.conf with the option of adding the sender addresses and sender domains in files in /etc/exim/some-files.

I love keeping my exim.conf as close to the one in the distro as possible, but for some reason I don't see the most appropriate place in exim.conf to insert the rules, such as:

deny   message       = Users have complained that you send unsolicited mail.\n\You're therefore blacklisted.\n\

                                    Please contact abuse@crownkenya.com

           senders        = ${if exists {/etc/exim/blacklisted_senders}{/etc/exim/blacklisted_senders}{}}

Thanks guys and have a great week.
