No, because that's not what I'm seeing in the documentation.  Taken from
here:  http://www.spamdyke.org/documentation/README.html#RELAYING

 

Each line in the access file should use one of the following formats: 

 

remote_i...@remote_ip:ACCESS 

remote_i...@=remote_name:ACCESS 

REMOTE_IP:ACCESS 

REMOTE_NAME:ACCESS 

:ACCESS

 

...

 

ACCESS is the permission setting -- either allow or deny. Connections are
allowed by default (if no match is found). If access is denied, no mail is
accepted at all, whether relayed or not. 

 

...

 

For example, if the remote server's IP address is 11.22.33.44 and its rDNS
name is mail.example.com, each of the following lines will match, allow
connections and set several environment variables: 

 

11.22.33.44:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

11.20-100.33.44:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

11.22.:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

11.22.33.0/24:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

11.22.0.0/255.255.0.0:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazv
alue- 

=mail.example.com:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue
- 

=.example.com:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

=.com:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue- 

:allow,FOOVAR="foovalue",BARVAR=.barvalue.,BAZVAR=-bazvalue-

 

So, in the docs, it shows "ACCESS" in uppercase, but ACCESS appears to me to
be a representation of either "allow" or "deny", depending on the usage.

 

The group of examples also show "allow" or "deny" in lowercase, but they
also show additional information that I don't believe I need in my case...
Unless I'm misreading something.  :-)
