I haven't quite got it into a working system yet so it might be a little early to ask ;) I've just been testing it to see if it works as expected. The general thinking behind it though is that it could possibly give more generalised coverage than dul.sorbs and move the processing to the local machine. In its simplest form of just checking the already cached rDNS - ie. Yes dynamic looking, no not dynamic looking - it looks to be rather fast and doesn't require additional external DNS queries. I turned off or removed most of the other stuff as I already have a more complicated greylist-like daemon. I also don't have any better way of looking at a HELO/rDNS and telling if it's dynamic other than running it through a scoring system. -- The Exim Manual http://www.exim.org/docs.html http://docs.exim.org/current/ -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
