147 Consider the case of a mail server that is acting as secondary MX for a
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
148 collection of clients, each of which has a collection of mail domains.

149 Each client may use their own collection of DNSBLs on their primary mail

1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
152 side-effect, it gives us the ability to customize the set of DNSBLs on a
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook

153 per-recipient basis, so that fred@example.com could use SPEWS and the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook

154 SBL, where all other users @example.com use only the SBL.

1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl

159 reject mail sent to invalid addresses. Otherwise, the backup mail
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook

1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook

179 after being modified, the milter will log the error and send an email to

193 different reasons for whitelisting. The former is done thru the DCC

1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl

199 This could be done thru either the DCC (on a global basis, or for a
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
200 specific single recipient). We prefer to do such blacklisting via the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
201 DNSBL milter config, since it can be done for a collection of recipient
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
202 mail domains. The DCC approach has the feature that you can capture the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
203 entire message in the DCC log files. The DNSBL milter approach has the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
204 feature that the mail is rejected earlier (at RCPT TO time), and the

205 sending machine just gets a generic "550 5.7.1 no such user" message.
