Hello,

I setup and configured Xmail (Windows) to relay to our Exchange server using "custdomains" with smtprelay. It works great but is there a way to use RBL with smtprelay under custdomains? My whole goal is not to relay it to our Exchange if it's in the RBL- I just want the connection to be dropped once it hits Xmail if it's a recognized spam.

I tried using smtpfwd.tab but it won't relay to Exchange unless the IP is in the smtprelay.tab. I get the "ERelay" error in the logs.

Please help. Or any ideas or better (correct) way to do what I'm trying to accomplish? Sorry if this is a newbie question. I just started using Xmail and I like it.

Thanks in advance.

Try using a smtp proxy (such as ASSP) to achieve this, IMHO it'll be allot simpler for you to setup and maintain. If you goal is just RBL filtering.

Thanks Chris! I'll check that one out.

One more thing... So I changed my "custom.net.tab" (custdomains folder) to "smtp" instead of "smtprelay"[TAB]"custom.net". I noticed some mails (very very few) are getting blocked by RBL ("SNDRIP=EIPMAP (sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org."))but not all (the obvious spam or). What does the "smtp" actually does as opposed to "smtprelay"? Does it passes through the filter list? I'm a little confused.

By the way, I have the "custom.net" under the "smtpfwd.tab" as well to forward to another smtp (Our Exchange).

Thanks again!
