Hi,

Today I saw some entries in our yesterday's maillog that showed
"whitelist=bypass".

May  9 17:16:02 <svr> postfix-policyd: rcpt=221924, whitelist=bypass,
host=<sndr_ip> (unknown), from=,sndr_email>, to=<rcpt_email>, size=859 

Earlier this morning, there are the normal "greylist=new", etc messages.
I connected to mysql:policyd, performed a query, and it worked; I didn't
even try to correct a problem.

README.txt from the source tarball says:

module=bypass   <- mysql failed inside module
                (module can be whitelist,blacklist,helo,etc..)

I found "how" this message is logged in policyd.c:

      /*
       *  handle database failure
       */
      if(probe == -20)
      {
        last_mail_time=timenow;
        goto passthrough;
      }

...

passthrough:

  /*
   * in order to reach here, no modules have been used.
   * switch into pass-through mode and allow.
   */
  logmessage("rcpt=%lu, module=bypass, host=%s (%s), from=%s, to=%s,
size=%s\n",
    rcpt_count,                       /* recipient count      */
    host_array[fd][2],                /* host                 */
    host_array[fd][0],                /* hostname             */
    triplet_array[fd][1],             /* from                 */
    triplet_array[fd][2],             /* rcpt                 */
    triplet_array[fd][3]);            /* size                 */
  
So, indeed the MySQL connction failed and no module was used.
What I'd like to know is: how I can find out if this was a MySQL or
Policyd problem (because everything is working now without correcting or
restarting anything)?


Thanks!
Rob
