Hi,

I've got a problem with the ratelimit configuration. It just doesn't work and it doesn't tell me why. Here's what I did:

acl_smtp_mail = acl_check_mail

...

acl_check_mail:
  # Rate limiting on all messages per host
  defer   ratelimit     = 50 / 5m / strict
          message       = Sending rate exceeded. Try again later.
          log_message   = Sending rate exceeded: 
$sender_rate/$sender_rate_period (max $sender_rate_limit)

  # Keep authenticated users under control
  deny    authenticated = *
          ratelimit     = 10 / 5m / strict / $authenticated_id

  # System-wide rate limit
  defer   message       = Sorry, too busy. Try again later.
          ratelimit     = 100 / 10s / $primary_hostname

Most of this is derived from the official documentation on the topic.

Sending a message as authenticated user fails. The main log says that the message was "rejected". Nothing more. Thunderbird suggests "administrative problems" on the server.

What have I done wrong? How can it be corrected?

Exim 4.71 on Ubuntu 10.04.
