Mail is being delivered in general. Some mail was rejected via spamhaus.org due to the originating domain, but that's not the issue here -- the domain indicated is the destination. Why would I get messages indicating a rejection from spamhaus for a domain it does not consider a problem? It appears as if the daily run output may be listing the destination domain instead of the source? I have the following FEATUREs set: FEATURE(access_db, `hash -o -T /etc/mail/access') FEATURE(blacklist_recipients) FEATURE(local_lmtp) FEATURE(mailertable, `hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable') FEATURE(virtusertable, `hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable') FEATURE(dnsbl, `zen.spamhaus.org') FEATURE('delay_checks') FEATURE(`ratecontrol', `nodelay', `terminate') FEATURE(`conncontrol', `nodelay', `terminate') I tried reconfiguring without the delay_checks, ratecontrol and conncontrol features, but it didn't seem to make any difference. Can anyone give me some hints about what is going on? Thanks, Gary
