this is very interesting. so i should use greylisting only for greylisting and not try to do too much with it. instead i should let exim do the blacklisting and some of the whitelisting (if i want to let certain parts of a blacklist through i guess). on my system the man page says the file is host_local_deny_exceptions (instead of local_host_whitelist), so possibly the file name is an older one since i'm on debian squeeze. -- in friendship, prad -- ## List details at https://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/
