The postfix filter has changed a lot over the years, although I don't think any standard versions would capture this text. Are you sure you want to ban on this match? There are legitimate reasons for testing a connection so you might end up blocking 'good' ips (e.g. https://www.shodan.io/). Which version of fail2ban are you using and do you have a bespoke postfix filter (postfix.local) or are you just using the standard file for your version? For this filter (only) I use (as my postfix.local) the latest development version at https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/blob/0.10/config/filter.d/postfix.conf _______________________________________________ Fail2ban-users mailing list Fail2ban-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fail2ban-users
