Recently got a new range added to one of my servers, its cooked on yahoo but delivering well on the other majors, Can anyone give me some tips on how I could config PMTA so it no longer hits that IP with yahoo domains once it gets TS03 on that run? Currently the config I have just goes into back off mode. reply /\[TS01\] Messages from/ mode=backoff reply /\[TS02\] Messages from/ mode=backoff reply /\[TS03\] All messages from/ mode=backoff
this is a tricky question as powermta doesn't handle this sort of thing well you could set backoff-reroute-to-vmta inside the vmta for that ip to send it to another ip which will deliver
The easiest way would be to find all of the domains that use yahoo mx then create a 'domain macro' that would bounce them.
you could set the mx connection limit for *.yahoodns.net to 0 but i think he wants to deliver to yahoo just not on those ips
ah, I misunderstood him then.. backoff-reroute-to-virtualmta X would work fine in that case. It's a headache to do properly though.
Thanks for all the input guys, hmm headaches is all I need right now haha, Maybe I just set that range up as a different mta and just filter all yahoo mx domains on that mta?
Where could I get some more info on this bud? Does it pull that IP completely from the run? or can you set it for domains like in my situation?
