Postgrey does, indeed have a control. Postgrey comes with two whitelists. One is a list of users that you never want greylisted (the default file has [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] in it) and the other is a list of senders that need special handling. Google's mail farm is one such instance that appears in the default file. > The logs > will tell, but that's a chore. As with all mailserver management, the > secret is in proper log analysis. Yes. And it's easy to disable at any time, should we need to. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
