if the MXGREY-Option ist set to 1 in gld.conf the mail is accepted if the "rcpt to:"-Line in smtp-chat is given three ore more time regardless of the time elapsed since the first time any minimal timeout between first and succesful try is ignored Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.connect to an gld-proteced postfix with activated MXGREY 2.send a mail that get greylisted 3.retry for three times within the minimal timemout Actual Results: the mail is accepted at the third try, even if the minimal timeout has not elapsed Expected Results: the mail should have been delayed untiul the timeout elapsed Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.0/2.4, gcc-3.3.5, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.4.32-pre1-it4linux i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.32-pre1-it4linux i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Processor Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.10 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.30-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=athlon-tbird -march=athlon -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -pipe " CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/fax /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf /dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/bind /var/qmail/control /var/spool/fax/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=athlon-tbird -march=athlon -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -pipe " DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://funtaskic.informatik.uni-bremen.de/ftp/gentoo/" LANG="de_DE@euro" LC_ALL="de_DE@euro" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/etc/portage/overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.linux-net.dnsalias.net/gentoo-portage/" USE="3dnow 3dnowex 3dnowext X acl acpi alsa apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzlib cdr crypt curl dvd emboss encode esd fam foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gtk gtk2 im agemagick imlib java jpeg libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis oss pam pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline samba sdl s pell ssl tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts vorbis x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
backgronud informations and implementation details: gld use a timestamp OR a try counter for making its decision when MXGREY is switched off every server,sender,receipent triple get delayed until the timeout calculated from the first attempt elapsed, but the attempt counter get increased, altough the mail is further delayed when MXGREY is switched on an additional check is done if the server has a try-counter set to more than one in fact this means that the timeout has to be elapsed OR the try-counter has to reach 2, as simply specifying the receipient three times fullfills the last condition, every (specially crafted) mail can pass within the first connection and a single second
Created an attachment (id=66109) [edit] gld-1.5.2-mxgrey-fix.patch.bz2 this patch changes the SQL-database-update behavior, so that the try counter is only increased when the minimal timeout is elapsed. so the counter will stay at one until the timeout is elapsed and therefor MXGREY will NOT accept the mails to the latest-try-timestamp is still upgraded, as it is not used by the greylisting-algorithm
by now I can add that the patch works well and has the additional advantage, that the counter stays at one, so unsuccessful tries can be identified more easy ...
Fixed in CVS, thanks.
