RE: [cobalt-users] Block List Tip



Hi Dan

I would love to get more information on adding a message to rejected mail for reasons of Spam. I have had a look at the sendmail.cf file and found the line you mentioned, can i just add text to replace "550 Access denied" with what ever i want ? and should what ever i put in there be between the quotes, something like "Your email has been rejected because it was found to be Spam"

Instead of appending that the way it is, I edited sendmail.cf R<REJECT>
$* line so when /etc/mail/access says simply REJECT it sends a custom
message to keep the access file smaller. That way I can simply replace
all the instances of "ERROR:550 "Blocked by
http://www.stearns.org/sa-blacklist/""; with simply REJECT.
