Does the above look right? I've had it in place on one server for about
a week, but I can't see in the logs ever kicking in - so now I'm not
sure if the syntax is wrong, or maybe I haven't had any persistent
offenders during this time.
Try using exim_dumpdb and looking for your ratelimit-period of 24h
in the keys. The sender_host_address will also be part of the key.
Thank you for that tip! I can see in the ratelimit db quite a few hosts
which have reached the 5/24h limit. But strangely in the Exim log I
can't see the appropriate reject messages - although I can see reject
messages for various other ACL's I've set up. Searching by the offending
IP addresses in the logs, I can see them retrying over and over again -
and yet my initial connect ACL never seems to kick in and deny the
connection. I can't really think of a reason for this.
