How would you find out why /etc/tcp.smtp
is rejecting SMTP relay from some IP addresses
but not others?
My Qmail SMTP server is working great from other computers near it, but
isn't accepting SMTP from my home dialup connection.
All IPs are treated equally in /etc/tcp.smtp:
bash# more tcp.smtp
127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
192.168.0.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
165.169.21.162:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
165.169.21.163:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" <-- works
165.169.21.164:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" <-- works
165.169.21.165:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" <-- works
165.169.21.166:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" <-- works
26.175.124.123:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" <-- DOESN'T WORK (home dialup)
:allow
I even tried putting my home dialup IP address in /etc/hosts - but no luck.
Any clue how to solve this or figure out WHY it's refusing SMTP from home?
