Hi all,

This problem regards a RH9 box I have had setup running a Shupp Toaster
solidly for over 12 months. I have barely touched it in the last 6; system
resources are fine and everything has been OK. Until last Friday, when
people sending mail to my server started receiving something like this:

(log entries from remote host, sending TO my server):

All I can find in reference to an error 451 are mentions of SPF errors,
and I have not changed my SPF configuration. I have however experimented
by disabling SPF (echo 1 > /var/qmail/control/spfbehaviour ; qmailctl
restart) and (echo 0 > /var/qmail/control/spfbehaviour ; qmailctl restart)
however neither made any difference.

I've done all the obvious things, checked & repaired mysql databases,
queried my domains with the qmail & vpopmail tools to make sure everything
is working there. But not change; my mail server is simply rejecting
everything not sent from one of my hosted domains. Sounds like
greylisting; but I haven't made any configuration changes. I'm stuck...
Can anyone help?

Many thanks,
David
