Thanks for the thorough explanation. I had spent some time looking at the mimedefang.pl script (specifically the interaction between md_check_against_smtp_server and watching how it calls get_smtp_return_code) and I was getting close. . I put in the code as you provided, but it still doesn't log anything (either valid or notauser) into the md_graphdefang_log. However I did find this in my /var/log/maillog Mar 27 09:59:40 monitor mimedefang.pl[23405]: md_graphdefang_log called outside of message context -Bill _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
