Topic: Relaying Denied - DNSBL?

[bloodshoteye]

Hi, all
I saw this in the /qpsmtpd/current logs today and was wondering if this is the result of DNSBL filtering, which I have enabled?
Or am I in trouble - there are hundreds... (I removed my actual IP address):

No.

Your SME server is correctly rejecting attempts to relay mail via your server.

It looks to me that your server may be being probed to see whether it has an open mail relay. The connection you've shown in the log came from Beijing (according to http://www.hostip.info/)

That's good news - don't want to cater to ringstings.

I am having the same problem as above, the users the mail is being denied relay is for users on the local machine.

I get the following error

check_goodrcptto        901     relaying denied user@domainx.com message denied before queue

but user@domainx.com exists on the local server, and is a valid user as follows ( all details cahnged to protect the innocent

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<user@domainx.com>:
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 relaying denied user@domainx.com
Giving up on XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.

Hi Charlie

Sorry the bugzilla, is a very difficult "app" to use...wasnt sure if it was a Bug, as it is already discussed in the forum with no resolution..

Will post at bugzilla..

What is so difficult then? After you have created your login it is just a matter of posting a message in the right category with the proper information... just like the forums.

People keep saying bugzilla is hard, but fail mentioning why. So I suggest you add your opinion to this thread: http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=43308

Not so. Re-read this thread carefully. The resolution of ardugh's problem was that it was a false alarm and his server was acting correctly.
