Greylisting Toggle menu not working properly

So I disabled Greylisting by using menu 6) MailWatch Settings, 1) Toggle Greylisting
But now, every time I visit this menu it states that Greylisting is enabled (and it's not) so I can't enable it.
So everytime I go into this menu:
[EFA] Enable/Disable greylisting
[EFA] Greylisting will temporarily reject any email from a sender it
[EFA] does not recognize. If the mail is legitimate the originating server
[EFA] will, after a delay, try again and, if sufficient time has elapsed,
[EFA] the email will be accepted.
[EFA] This however causes an delay in receiving mail, by default this system
[EFA] is configured to reject any email for 5 minutes.
[EFA] Not all admin's like this setup so giving you the option to disable
[EFA] greylisting on this system.
[EFA] Greylisting is currently ENABLED
[EFA] Would you like to DISABLE greylisting? [y/N/c]: y
postfix/postfix-script: refreshing the Postfix mail system
Shutting down SQLgrey: Coudn't read pidfile: /var/run/sqlgrey.pid
[ OK ]
[EFA] Greylisting DISABLED
Press [Enter] key to continue...

grrr....can't reproduce but know its there. Do either of you have a snippet of your postfix config you could share? I wonder if it has something to do with how things are in the config....

Also, if you want to get really nasty, you could always:
/etc/sqlgrey/clients_fqdn_whitelist.local
that should match any possible domain and 'whitelist' them in sqlgrey ( bypass greylisting for matches ). it's a dirty workaround, but I've already found a ton of providers who don't resend via the same IP address, so I've had to white list them via
Admittedly, I'm lucky in that I only have a single mail gateway to worry about, so I really shouldn't poo-poo folks who run a bigger environment...

the documentation is available by running
--EDITED-- with correct IP for loopback address
My guess is that you'll want to remove the
Code: Select all
check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:2501
from the
/etc/postfix/main.cf file. It's probably under
smtpd_recipient_restrictions. Don't forget to remove any extra commas if you just comment the line out to test ( I recommend doing this first ).

You can enable in Mailwatch the greylisting by editing the file
/var/www/html/mainscanner/conf.php
Code: Select all
// Greylisting menu item
define('SHOW_GREYLIST', true);
