What does your incoming log have to say about what it did to these
messages?
Two of the 3 addresses had been released, so they are in my
~/.tmda/lists/released file, and 1 had actually confirmed their message,
and the address for that is sitting in ~/.tmda/lists/confirmed. YET,
all 3 of these addresses appeared on the blacklist (automating the
blacklisting has proven unreliable enough that I have a cron to e-mail
me my blacklist each night so I can see if it caught legitimate
addresses, which it does). Is there any logging aside from the message
delivery logging that can be turned on? Can anyone explain why these
addresses are getting added to the blacklist when they have either been
confirmed and are sitting in confirmed or manually released and sitting
in released?
I'm not sure what you mean by message delivery logging.
I have the following lines in my config:
LOGFILE_DEBUG = os.path.expanduser(~/log/tmda/debug)
LOGFILE_INCOMING = os.path.expanduser(~/log/tmda/incoming)
LOGFILE_OUTGOING = os.path.expanduser(~/log/tmda/outgoing)
So, once again, what does your incoming log have to say about what it
did to these messages?
The incoming log should look something like this:
Date: Sun Feb 15 06:27:38 MST 2004
From: root [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subj: Daily AIDE report for localhost.org
Actn: OK (from-file /home/monique/.tmda/lists/whitelist ok)(47581)
Once again, I've explained what happened w/ each of the messages. The
incoming log does not tell how it gets added to the blacklist! That is
what I meant by message delivery logging. The incoming log is an
example of message delivery logging. But if I delete a message from
tmda-pending, it doesn't log anything anywhere about what happened,
including it getting added to the blacklist for having the
PENDING_DELETE_APPEND option chosen. At this point, I barely remember
all three messages, but here is what I found on a couple of them in the
logs, one that was manually released, and one that was confirmed:

The ONLY thing that shows up in the logs is the CONFIRM_APPEND as far as
what gets added to the multiple lists, making logging virtually useless
in this situation.

Regardless of what is causing the problem, if you move things around like:
from ok
from-file ~/.tmda/lists/confirmed ok
from-file ~/.tmda/lists/released ok
from-file ~/.tmda/lists/whitelist ok
from-file ~/.tmda/lists/blacklist bounce #drop is prabably better

That way accidental deletions don't block mail from otherwise whitelis
