Hi, 

 

sorry I was a bit quick with my first mail. After scrutinising the log
entries I found out that the mails were first rejected for RLB-Match or
other reasons and then 100 seconds later I get the timeout entry in the log
for the same message. 

That indicates IMHO that spamdyke isn’t closing the thread after rejecting a
message.

I am using spamdyke 4.0.10-mysql (for the logging) but I ran 4.0.10 without
mysql just with the same result. 

The server is Suse10.3 with Plesk 8.4   

This is my  spamdyke.conf :

 

greeting-delay-secs=5

max-recipients=20

log-level=info

tls-level=smtp

tls-certificate-file=/var/qmail/control/servercert.pem

local-domains-file=/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts

[email protected]

graylist-level=always-create-dir

idle-timeout-secs=100

dns-blacklist-entry=zen.spamhaus.org

dns-blacklist-entry=multi.uribl.com

dns-blacklist-entry=cbl.abuseat.org

#dns-blacklist-entry=bl.spamcop.net

reject-empty-rdns

reject-missing-sender-mx

reject-unresolvable-rdns

 

Any Idea why this does happen?

 

Greetings

 

Markus

Betreff: [spamdyke-users] 30% of Spam gets time-out

 

Hi, 

 

I just want to ask you if anyone is making the same experience. 

If have set the idle-timeout  of spamdyke to 100 seconds. Which leads to 30%
of all tested Mails get a time-out. These mails are definitely spam,
regarding to their sending addresses and servers. 

I haven’t used the idle-timeout before and spamdyke was starting so many
processes that it brought the server down. 

Now I am just wondering if all these mail are send by faulty servers or if
the spamdyke threads may crash and therefore time-out.  I am checking with
three dns-blacklists.

How many seconds do you set the idle-timeout? 

 

And another question:  When I use greylisting, are the rdns checks and
blacklist checks made before a mail is greylisted or only when a mail get
through greylisting. 

 

 

Greetings

 

Markus
