That's the one. Or bad.example.com has MX mail.example.com, which resolves to 127.0.0.1. > If this is rejected, then you in turn reject the MAIL FROM: with a 5xx Sorry, if > [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't want to receive mail from <>, I don't want mail from him. I totally agree, and I may do that for untrusted domains in the future, but it's a high cost option at this point, and I don't know if it would be worth it. I'd rather do some Net::DNS code to check the A record for the domain's MX, or the domain's A record itself, and reject if any of them resolve to 127.0.0.1. I was wondering if anyone had already done this and had some code to post. I haven't used Net::DNS before, and mimedefang-filter is about the most complex perl I have dealt with, so, being a n00b I was hoping to get an example I could adapt to my installation. _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
