Hello folks,
I am unable to manually whitelist yahoo! mail sender IP addresses since
yahoo! does not play well with greylisting.
However I can whitelist gmail, aol, hotmail, rediff and so on since they
publish SPF records.
Is there a way to determine the IP addresses yahoo! uses for sending
mail

I believe there is a new e-mail archival project called lucene which is
written in the greatest programming language on the planet.

Hi Misc,
Perhaps I am doing something silly but I rather want to get relayd working

By any chance did I hit this bug? I hope not:

Hi Misc,
I see transproxy port has been removed in 5.2.
I thought relayd(8) could do instead but then
I want relayd to forward the HTTP request to tinyproxy and not
directly proxy to the web server.
What is the way out?
Does relayd support transparent proxying to tinyproxy?
