  • Plesk 9.2 for Linux/Unix

Symptoms

Emails from ebay will not come through because one of the default Greylisting patterns "dsl|pool|broadband|hsd" excludes their mail servers. The following records are shown in maillog:

/usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog

But the pattern is not shown in server wide Greylisting settings:
 
~# /usr/local/psa/bin/grey_listing --info-server
...
Black domains patterns list:
*[0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9]*
*[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9]*
*[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9][0-9]*
*[0-9][0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9][0-9].[0-9[0-9]][0-9]*
dsl|broadband|hsd
dynamic|static|ppp|dyn-ip|dial-up
...

 
Why pattern "dsl|pool|broadband|hsd" is used?
How to remove the pattern from server wide Greylisting settings?

Cause

The domain pattern exists in SQLite database file /var/lib/plesk/mail/greylist/settings.db and it is used for email processing.However CLI utility grey_listing cannot remove the pattern from Greylisting configuration and does not show it with "grey_listing --info-server"

Resolution

The problem will be fixed in future update of Parallels Plesk Panel that will be released after version 9.2.3.

To resolve the problem now it is recommended that you remove the pattern manually with the following commands:

~# /usr/local/psa/bin/grey_listing -u -domains-blacklist del:"dsl|pool|broadband|hsd"
~# echo "delete from remote_domains where domain='dsl|pool|broadband|hsd';" |sqlite3 /var/lib/plesk/mail/greylist/settings.db
