IMO question is if it cancel delays only, or cancel sending response too and only logs ACL result. I don't know, as i don't speek C, to check sources. Packet capture can reveal this, but i never meet that. >I've never used external blacklists (because I don't trust other >people to make my spam decisions for me), but that would be a harmless >use for them. Thanks for the tip! I will try to move your minds even more. There are different RBLs. Some are more decent, other less decent, but i agree, that SPAM definition is too broad to rely on decisions of others. I prefer own checks too. But then there are RBLs which tracks botnets and/or login attempts. Have you enough capacity (a lot of servers/ sensors/traps/... across of world) to identify them early? Or you identify them only after some amount of malicious attempts? That are hundreds of thousands compromised PCs, IoTs, even servers (i mostly mean VPSs "servers", maintained by users)... Do you really want, to allow all of them to consume your resources only to reinvert wheel (that it is some botnet)? It is not only about SPAM, phishing and other related attempts. Are you interested to get the same scam from thousands compromised IPs? How it is useful? And neverending story of "AUTH used, when not advertised", etc, etc, ... It is especially hard to track these bads, as when botnet has a lot of IPs, they can repeat only after long time, but still to be too many different IPs daily. And the attackers doesn't use IPv6 (temporary addresses) yet... regards -- Slavko https://www.slavino.sk/ -- ## subscription configuration (requires account): ## https://lists.exim.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/exim-users.lists.exim.org/ ## unsubscribe (doesn't require an account): ## exim-users-unsubscr...@lists.exim.org ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
