It sounds like you've either found a bug or there's something strange about your configuration.
Just to clarify: zero-byte graylist files are normal. They indicate the sender has connected once and been blocked but has never returned. If you're seeing lots of zero-byte files, that's good! It means you're probably stopping a lot of spam. A few questions: When this problem occurs, does _any_ mail get through? Are new zero-byte files being created (and never filled) or is spamdyke unable to create/write any files at all? Have you checked to make sure you're not out of disk space and/or inodes? Have you tried removing/commenting the "graylist-min-secs" option from your configuration file? More basic questions: What operating system and version are you using? Is spamdyke logging any errors? Have you run spamdyke's "config-test" feature to look for problems? Could you post your configuration file and qmail-smtpd "run" file? -- Sam Clippinger Boris Hinzer wrote: > It seems that these zero-byte files seem to block mail delivery permanently. > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Boris Hinzer > Gesendet: Freitag, 10.
