So, for blacklisting, I can append domains to the /var/qmail/control/badmailfrom file to bypass having to load the IPs into Plesk 1 at a time. Is there a file I can edit through SSH to append the "Good IPs" to in the same sense? I don't see it as really a hot idea, spending the next 2 hours loading the IPs in one at a time, then waiting for the Plesk page to reload after each addition.
Where exactly is qmail's "Whitelist" database?

If there is a file for good ip's, I have never been able to find it.

If you installed qgreylist from ART's, then you have the "lite" version. There is not a whitelist database ( as in sql database ) in the lite version. The lite version created the empty files you see in the "/var/qmai/greylist" folder. If you want to have an ip bypassed from greylist checking, create "/var/qmail/whitelist" and add the ip address file name there ( same format as files in the "/var/qmail/greylist" folder ).

That's about as much as I know about qgreylisting.

nooby need help.

i was reading through this qgreylisting thread. and wondering if i could use it for what i need.

i need to block every email that gets sent through qmail-smtp except for

local domains on the server
domain1.com.au -- this is external
domain2.com.au -- this is external

the emails are only sent through webmail.

are you talking about messages destined for the local system or mail coming from your server to remote sites? greylisting is only going to apply for inbound messages to the local system
