Hello,

Could anybody please help me to resolve this problem.
ISP's in South Africa have implimented greylisting, all mails sent to domains controlled by this ISP (many) just sit in the que and never get delivered.

This is causing me major headaches, and is starting loose me business.

The ISP Abuse department reposnded iand informed me theat my sever (PLESK 8.3) is not RFC-2821 compliant.

After much reading, and intense searching I have found this "patch"
http://www-dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de ... c2821.diff

patch-qmail-1.03-rfc2821.diff

What i understand is that if the primary MX does not respond, qmail will try the higher MX. If the primary MX responds but temp fails the message, qmail will try the same MX again later.

I dont know howto patch qmail???
Please anybody, some help would be great!

If they're failing because of that, then they're not getting mail from yahoo either.

Hello Scott.

My main issue is that mail is not sending.
Mails been sent to domains with this particular provider are just dying in the que.
Lucky for me we dont do much mail to yahoo or gmail :>

all i need right now is to sort out this particular issue.
Can you offer me some pointers?

Hello Scott.

Qmail and Greylisting - RFC-2821

Instead of creating more fodder, please see my post at http://forum.swsoft.com/showthread.php? ... post200804

This is all the data I have.

There are a bunch of threads in the PSA forums about rebuilding qmail. My attempts at making a PSA compatible qmail rpm are available here:

Hello Scott,

Do any of your builds have the mentioned patch?
may i ask what your builds include?

Thanks,
Mark

I think you need this Knowledge Base article: Plesk 8 uses patched Qmail. How do I compile Qmail with my own patches?

Thanks i will work through the link supplied :>
