Thx Gordon. I was hoping for each user to be able to do their own spam white and black listing and training, even as far as a per user spam quarantine (ala Barracuda).

Thx. Can I ask how greylisting works? I am getting some emails greylisted, but then later in the day I see the same(?) email get put into greylisting again? I know my wife wants these - she likes pickupstix! J does the greylist 'time out' after a short period and the listing gets removed and then the process starts over with a subsequent email? One of these also tried to come in on the 16th as well with the same Greylisting results.

Recently, over the past couple of years or so, spamcop has started including some direct marketing domains that are not classic spammers with the theory that, if their bulk mail ends up in their spam traps then they should be blocked no matter who they are.

See: https://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html For example, to whitelist senders, use either whitelist_from_rcvd or whitelist_from.

Many large ISPs and some other companies have multiple sending servers so that is probably why you are seeing the same sender email address greylisted multiple times. This is how greylisting works in Exim4U. First, If the spamscore > 0 then the IP is greylisted for 5 minutes. A "temporary error" is given to the sending server with the message "Mail is suspicious.

OK - found the same entry, except for ID, 3 times in the greylist.db. That explains the relist. The first column is ID, second is expiry time. "VaVueV6VAzapTPcoUley" "1460822883" "198.2.133.190" "mail.private-eclub.com" "aSSXEAkNnUVM1ggcgYhU" "1460995856" "198.2.133.190" "mail.private-eclub.com" "sdYFNHuQnoXeDxoigBIm" "1461014544" "198.2.133.190" "mail.private-eclub.com" That is from the greylist table. There is no entry in the resenders table, and obviously it is sending again. It seems the issue comes from trying to match the id, and that is not(?) going to happen as it is generated as such: # Generate a hashed 'identity' for the mail, as described above. warn set acl_m_greyident = ${hash{20}{62}{$sender_address$recipients$h_message-id:}} Is the message-id not unique for every message sent? But then again, *something* is working as the resenders database is actually populated with 25 entries. I guess I have to scrub my logs to see if there are legit senders that do not resend (immediately?) and whitelist them? or remove greylisting? Thx!

All legitimate mail servers resend, however, some that don't are direct marketing servers, etc. It would be the same if your server was down for a few minutes due to maintenance....

Many large ISPs and some other companies have multiple sending servers so that is probably why you are seeing the same sender email address greylisted multiple times. This is how greylisting works in Exim4U. First, If the spamscore > 0 then the IP is greylisted for 5 minutes. A "temporary error" is given to the sending server with the message "Mail is suspicious. Please retry later." Then, after 5 minutes, the IP address is whitelisted for 7 days by default during which time that IP address will no longer by greylisted. The length of time of the whitelisting can be changed by editing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can whitelist forever by never runing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can also disable greylisting by commenting out the greylisting stanzas in exim.conf. Gordon On 04/18/2016 08:04 PM, Helmut Fritz wrote: Thx. Can I ask how greylisting works?

I guess I have to scrub my logs to see if there are legit senders that do not resend (immediately?) and whitelist them? or remove greylisting? Thx!

Many large ISPs and some other companies have multiple sending servers so that is probably why you are seeing the same sender email address greylisted multiple times. This is how greylisting works in Exim4U. First, If the spamscore > 0 then the IP is greylisted for 5 minutes. A "temporary error" is given to the sending server with the message "Mail is suspicious. Please retry later." Then, after 5 minutes, the IP address is whitelisted for 7 days by default during which time that IP address will no longer by greylisted. The length of time of the whitelisting can be changed by editing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can whitelist forever by never runing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can also disable greylisting by commenting out the greylisting stanzas in exim.conf. Gordon On 04/18/2016 08:04 PM, Helmut Fritz wrote: Thx. Can I ask how greylisting works?

Is this something only to be done through webmail? 2016-04-15 23:21:18 H=outbound-191-242.usw2.aws.post.pinterest.com [54.149.191.242] X=TLSv1.2:ECDHE-RS A-AES256-GCM-SHA384:256 CV=no F=<bounces-457326674569107362(a)explore.pinterest.com> rejected RCPT <mywife(a)fritz.us.com>: Spammer rejected.

Well, one could really argue that direct marketing is legitimate if you sign up for it. the issue is it is so prevalent that it is difficult to remember if one signed up for it or not and then assumes the technical ability of users to be able to communicate the sending domain to be whitelisted. Most do not even know what whitelisting is. L BTW - I agree on the greylisting and I really like it, but I know exactly what emails I have signed up for and am expecting and how to deal with it at the server level. I had used it for a short time on my old server, but had a legit paying user complain so had to stop. it is the rock and a hard place issue for me.

Quite frankly, I do not recall ever having a legitimate user complaint caused by greylisting. Again, all legitimate email servers resend and if you want the direct marketing stuff then add them to your whitelist. On 04/19/2016 03:09 PM, Helmut Fritz wrote: Thx Gordon, yeah I kinda figured. That or they are bulk email provider and do so many that they do not bother with a resend. Now is where per user whitelisting would be nice.

The subsequent message is most probably a new email. A very few number of special purpose servers (mostly windows server) are not compliant with the rules regarding resending after temporary errors. All legitimate mail servers resend, however, some that don't are direct marketing servers, etc. It would be the same if your server was down for a few minutes due to maintenance.... Whitelisting in Spamassassin will prevent greylisting based on spamscore. So, I would do that. On 04/19/2016 02:47 PM, Helmut Fritz wrote: OK - found the same entry, except for ID, 3 times in the greylist.db. That explains the relist. The first column is ID, second is expiry time.

There is no entry in the resenders table, and obviously it is sending again. It seems the issue comes from trying to match the id, and that is not(?) going to happen as it is generated as such: # Generate a hashed 'identity' for the mail, as described above. warn set acl_m_greyident = ${hash{20}{62}{$sender_address$recipients$h_message-id:}} Is the message-id not unique for every message sent? But then again, *something* is working as the resenders database is actually populated with 25 entries. I guess I have to scrub my logs to see if there are legit senders that do not resend (immediately?) and whitelist them? or remove greylisting? Thx!

Both of those emails came in on the same ip address [198.2.133.190], but it looks like the greylisting did not make an entry as it says or the second email was greylisted as well for some reason? Does the certificate lookup have something do to with it (I would not think so, but?)? there is an ip of [52.35.107.200] the first try and [52.36.64.127] the second time, they resolve to amazon web services.

Many large ISPs and some other companies have multiple sending servers so that is probably why you are seeing the same sender email address greylisted multiple times. This is how greylisting works in Exim4U. First, If the spamscore > 0 then the IP is greylisted for 5 minutes. A "temporary error" is given to the sending server with the message "Mail is suspicious. Please retry later." Then, after 5 minutes, the IP address is whitelisted for 7 days by default during which time that IP address will no longer by greylisted. The length of time of the whitelisting can be changed by editing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can whitelist forever by never runing the greylist-tidy.sh script. You can also disable greylisting by commenting out the greylisting stanzas in exim.conf. Gordon On 04/18/2016 08:04 PM, Helmut Fritz wrote: Thx. Can I ask how greylisting works? I am getting some emails greylisted, but then later in the day I see the same(?) email get put into greylisting again? I know my wife wants these - she likes pickupstix! J does the greylist 'time out' after a short period and the listing gets removed and then the process starts over with a subsequent email?

So far it looks like I have only had two false positives due to spamcop, so I did remove them from the check. All the other rejects have been legit. Does the system rotate through the listed dnsbl's? or does ti check each of them for every message? Are there others that are free and have a good reputation (especially no false potitives)?

Recently, over the past couple of years or so, spamcop has started including some direct marketing domains that are not classic spammers with the theory that, if their bulk mail ends up in their spam traps then they should be blocked no matter who they are. You can train spamassassin globally or for each local domain but not for exim virtual domains. Nevertheless, you can probably get where you want to be with whitelisting/blacklisting in /usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf for FreeBSD. See: https://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html For example, to whitelist senders, use either whitelist_from_rcvd or whitelist_from. You can also adjust the Spamassassin Tag Score for each virtual user in the Exim4U web interface.
