That simple?
I'll give it a shot, thanks for clearing up a major headache! :)


According to the documentation, the block should be reported in the log file
though. Hopefully that doesn't apply to this version, since there's no sign
of it in the logs.

Thanks again!

- Eric

Subject: Re: [Assp-user] Imail refusing connections from certain IP

Hello,

Imail  has a dumb automatic blocking list which cuases much hassle, as it is
complete obscure.

Disable   "Auto-deny  possible  hack  attempts"  in  the  SMTP-Security
settings!

Have a look at:
http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20050921-DM01.htm
and
http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20050831-DM01.htm


Additionatly  you  should  update  to  8.22  at  least (I think this is
possible  without  a  valid  subscription) as older versions have some
security issues.

Matti

> Hi!

> I'm running an antispam-proxy (ASSP) in front of our ageing Imail 8.05 
> server. It has worked fine for some time, but recently, Imail randomly 
> decides to refuse all connections from the proxy. I've tried telneting

refused.


> Restarting the Imail SMTP service solves the problem (at least for a
while).

> Changing the proxy's IP address also immediately solves the problem, 
> until it's changed back.


> This leads me to believe that Imail somehow blacklists the proxy's IP, 
> maybe due to heavy traffic from it? Does anyone have any idea where to 
> look for such a non-persistent blacklist/block/ban?

> Imail's log files doesn't even mention the connection attempts, so I'm
