No. > Hard-coding it "on" only for some would make little sense. I agree. Since I started using Postfix in 2005, I've come across situations where it would have been nice to enable logging of certain permit actions, sometimes just temporarily, other times more permanently; the former to aid troubleshooting, the latter for historical data analysis. In today's case, I'd like to be able to see which/how many clients are being permitted due to permit_dnswl_client so I can evaluate the performance/effectiveness of list.dnswl.org. What if we gave all permit_*_* parameters an optional logging mode? What would be the scope of such an effort? Could we do something like log_permit_dnswl_client similar to we can use a service name here slow_destination_concurrency_limit? I counted only a dozen or so permit_ parameters in postconf(5). -- Stan
