Hi All, I just edited the main.cf file for the mail server that i am running and i added this to it.... Which seems ok and the mail server is running fine... However in the mail.log i get a message like this... The xxx.xxx.xx.xxx is a ip address i would say form the recipient sending email to the server. It seems the incoming ip adress is being added to the spam server for some reason... like which is not being recognised. Please if anyone has a idea....?? regards brainz
This explains how bl.spamcop.net works: http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/351.html I think you should simply remove reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net from your main.cf.
Hi Falko, Im sorry but this was just one example, however it seems all the spam list servers are producing the same message.... If i take out all of them there i cant see the sense in this type of protection from spam. Unfortunantly there all doing the same thing.... Any help would be apreciated regards brainz
Hi Falko, The /etc/resolv.conf has in it a internal servers ip address that is running a internal domain. It does run dns but only for the local domain. but in /etc/resolv.cong its simply nameserver 192.168.0.xxx which is the server inside the local network that runs a local domain. regards brainz
Hi Falko, i tried these nameservers... but this not made a difference... i cant even do a simple ping google.com i get this.. i can ping the default gateway 192.168.0.1 and i can ping our external ip address 60.229.253.45 just find it seems anything beyond i cannot ping anything beyond this... any help would be appreciated... Thankyou.. regards brainz
Hi Falko, Thankyou for your help... I have sorted the issue.... The server is now resolving domains. I used the 2 nameservers you provided... Now it is resolving... What i actually did is disonnected the whole network and connected the server directly to the router as the only box on the network and then i changed the nameservers to the ones you provided. Then restarted the server which i did not need to do actually but i did. The server started to resolve... Thankyou for you help once again. regards brainz
