http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1137 Summary: BATV and Greylisting Product: Exim Version: N/A Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: wishlist Priority: medium Component: ACLs AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] CC: [email protected] 1) As a result of greylisting(see below), prvs sender addresses are a bit of a pain to deal with. Would it be possible to include a feature whereby within in ACL the 'real' sender-address with the prvs/batv tag could be extracted into a new variable (or if not tag present the actual sender-address placed in that variable)? (or some similar mechanism?). We know of 2 common prvs schemes: prvs=nnnnnn=user@domain and batv=user=nnnnn@domain 2) We currently use greylisting where an unknown sender is only accepted upon the 2nd or subsequent attempt, providing that attemept is not made witin a couple of minutes of the first (which is rejected with an MX deferral message). It seems that your bug mail system is attempting twice in immediate succession and then giving up! Surely the point of a deferral message is that the sender should wait a reasonable time, on the basis that the receiving system is currently unable to accept the message ??? I am not sure what our own exim system does in this situation as I am unable to find a receiver to test it on! -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
