Hi Eric, Sorry I had not replied, must have missed seeing your response. Yes you are right I was using the wrong sender address. Thank you for pointing this out, I have now read the spamdyke explanation as well.

chkuser does not use badmailfrom/badmailto. chkuser simply does some sanity checks. badmailfrom/badmailto is part of qmail-smtpd itself (not sure if it's a patch or not). Does that clear things up?

The badmailfrom is the file I am using yet you are suggesting I use the "Deliver To" address which I assumed was used in the Badmailto file? Anyway here is the header...

Extract from log 2010-11-29 09:58:14.937637500 CHKUSER accepted sender: from <[email protected]::> 2010-11-29 10:08:20.529856500 CHKUSER accepted sender: from <[email protected]::> As can be seen from this that chkuser is accepting the @rolex.com but then spamdyke refuses it! My issue is, why does chkuser accept the sender when it is in the badmailfrom list? If chkuser denied the connection based on the rolex.com in badmailfrom them spamdyke would not be called.

Eric instigated the regex type expressions for me they entire operation does not seem to be working. I have some 150 addresses in the file and none of the are blocked. Example ....@rolex\.com$ ....@ozgameshop\.com$ \.yourfreeworld\.com$ eli...@gmail\.com$ The rolex one is the primary interest as it seems to get through no matter what I do. Is it my regex expressions or does bamailfrom/ badmailto simply not work? thanks...To begin with, the .* at the beginning isn't needed. It will match that without the specification, as there is no ^ indicating the beginning of the string. I'm wondering, are you looking at the correct recipient address? There are 2, one on the 'envelope' and one on the message itself. These 2 addresses don't necessarily match, and often do not with spam. On the messages that are getting though, take a look at the "Delivered To:" header. This is the address that badmailfrom will filter. Is that perhaps the problem you're having?
