Thanks to the help from Marius I no longer get the error and fail2ban appears 
to be working. I am still having troubhles with my firewall.

I have a command firewall_ban which is:

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule="rule family='ipv4' source 
address='$1' reject "


I copied this from a web posting, and I it is supposed to do what I need, which 
is ban specific IP addresses.

However, when I tried to ban an IP I grabbed from my EXIM logs I got an error

[root@ollie2 ~]# firewall_ban 46.17.96.82
Warning: ALREADY_ENABLED: rule family='ipv4' source address='46.17.96.82' 
reject 
success
[root@ollie2 ~]#

I was not surprised by this error as I did think that I had already banned this 
address. However, this does now beg the question, why am I still seeing in my 
exim/main.log:

2020-04-08 13:34:41 H=(slot0.iso-taem.com) [46.17.96.82] sender verify defer 
for <administra...@iso-taem.com>: host lookup did not complete
2020-04-08 13:34:41 H=(slot0.iso-taem.com) [46.17.96.82] 
F=<administra...@iso-taem.com> temporarily rejected RCPT 
<au...@ringways.co.uk>: Could not complete sender verify


Also, I am trying to add a failregex to match the following lines, but for some 
reason my attempts don't work.

2020-04-08 13:34:42 H=ip3.ip-144-217-187.net (swNLFAhhb9) [144.217.187.3] 
rejected EHLO or HELO swnlfahhb9: Your server with the IP 144.217.187.3 is with 
helo name (swNLFAhhb9) configured incorrectly. Email has been blocked. (HELO 
Error)

My best attemp is this one, and when I try it with fail2ban-regex it matches 
every time, but in real life, it doesn't trigger banning anyone

 ^%(pid)s.* \[<HOST>\] rejected EHLO or HELO 

They appear to match is I run fail2ban-regex but in real life, they're not 
triggering bans.
