Re: remove entry from spamdb greylist
This mail server has been somehow wrongly marked as grey and would stay stuck like in this state not allowing mails flowing in. Somehow after 3 attempts it should have whitelisted this IP so it didn't. What I now did is to manually add this IP my PF spamd whitelist. The final goal being simply to allow mail coming in from this mail server. Regards, M.L.

Re: remove entry from spamdb greylist
If that PF table is spamd-white, then it will get reset when you run spamd-setup(8) or reboot. Maybe a better way is to manually add this IP to the spamdb whitelist: spamdb -a 207.126.144.121 In this case the grey entry will be ignored and stay in the database until it expires. Or, even better, regularly add/update all OBSMTP addresses in your whitelist via SPF. Search the archives for people who made scripts for this kind of thing. Greylisting is great, but some mail delivery networks need a little help in the form of manual whitelisting of their netblocks.

Re: remove entry from spamdb greylist
Dear Peter, Thanks for your input too! Actually yesterday I have also tried afterwards to do a spamdb -a and as I didn't see any immediate effect (IP still listed under GREY), I simply assumed that it didn't work. From your mail I understand that it stays for a while as GREY until it expires, so maybe I wasn't patient enough. Anyhow today as I checked this IP is listed under WHITE so it looks like it finally worked as I wanted. Regards, M.L. From: Peter N. M.
