[Declude.JunkMail] SPAMDOMAINS and REVDNS

2003-12-13 Thread John Tolmachoff \(Lists\)
When a message comes from an IP that has no PTR record, and the sender
domain is in the SPAMDOMAINS list, it is getting double penalized for the
same violation. That is not the desired effect.

Is there a way that SPAMDOMAINS can be configured not to fail if there is no
PTR record, based on the assumption that most of us use the REVDNS test?

John, nothing should be listed in spamdomains unless it has a valid PTR ,
that's the very nature of the test - to test the mailfrom domain of a
message that has a matching domain listed in spamdomains (again, which
should already be confirmed to have valid PTR records), and reject those
that either have no PTR or have an invalid PTR.

Ah, I guess that is what I get for being busy and not fully paying attention
to how the test works. Thanks.
