A file containing rules may also contain comments: lines -beginning with # are ignored. All addresses are evaluated case-insensitive. - -Each rule contains an address, an ampersend sign '&', and a list of strings separated by -commas to be used for 'Mail From: Address Verification' (MAV). When -.BR qmail-smtpd (8) -receives a connection from that address, it checks whether the received -envelope sender address correspondes with a MAV string (from the right -to the left). -The MAV string for an address may be NULL in order to allow any envelope -sender address. NULLSENDER envelope addresses are not subject of the MAV. - -.SH "RULE BASE" -.BR qmail-smtpd (8) -looks for rules with various addresses in the following order: -.IP 1 -$TCPREMOTEINFO, if $TCPREMOTEINFO is set (e.g. by SMTP Authentication); -.IP 2. -$TCPREMOTEINFO@$TCPREMOTEIP, if $TCPREMOTEINFO is set; -.IP 3. -$TCPREMOTEINFO@=$TCPREMOTEHOST, if $TCPREMOTEINFO is set and $TCPREMOTEHOST is -set; -.IP 4. -the dotted decimal $TCPREMOTEIP address; -.IP 5. -the compactified $TCPREMOTEIP6 address; -.IP 6. -=$TCPREMOTEHOST, if $TCPREMOTEHOST is set; -.IP 7. -shorter and shorter prefixes of $TCPREMOTEIP ending with a dot; -.IP 8. -shorter and shorter values of $TCPREMOTEIP6 ending with a colon; -.IP 9. -shorter and shorter suffixes of $TCPREMOTEHOST starting with a dot, preceded -by =, if $TCPREMOTEHOST is set; and finally -.IP 10. -=, if $TCPREMOTEHOST is set. -.P -.B qmail-smtpd -employes the first matching rule for the MAV check. You should use the -.B -p -option to -.BR sslserver -if you rely on $TCPREMOTEHOST here. - -For example, here are some rules: - -.EX - jsmith@virtualdomain.com&john.smith@virtualdomain.com - joe@18.23.0.32&joe@example.com - 18.23&@example.com - =.heaven.mil&God@heaven.mil,st.peter@heaven.mil,-angles@heaven.mil - fe80:&user@myhost.local - 2001::feh:abc9:&me@fehnet.com -.EE - -.SH "IP-ADDRESSES" -.B qmail-mfrules -recognizes the dotted-decimal IPv4 and the compactified -IPv6 addresses tokenized by the 'dot' or the 'colon' character -and compares the respective parts from right to left. -However, the CIDR address format is not supported (yet). - - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -qmail-smtpd(8) |
