how to block all mails coming from that particular email address.

[Jbrabander]

I'm curious, what's the difference between the "salocal.cf.in" file and the "salocal.cf" file? The ".in" has the domains I blacklisted, but the other does not. And items are still coming in from the domains I blacklisted.

Any file in the zimbra directories that is labelled as '.in' is a file that's used to build the correct config file, changes should be made to the .in file.

hi phoenix

why it is not working

[nskmdu]

hi pals,

i did following things.

1) # vim /opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf.in

blacklist_from youth_sen@yahoo.co.in ---> i added this line

2) # su - zimbra

3) zimbra > zmamavisdctl restart

Killing amavisd with pid 910 done.
Started amavisd: pid 5339

4) zimbra > spamassassin -D --lint

I did just about the same thing. Edited the salocal.cf.in file, restarted zmamavisdctl, but the salocal.cf file has never modified to show the blacklisted items. Is there something I'm not getting restarted?

pls give the solution.

Hi nskmdu,

I was just messing with the salocal.cf.in just now and it works on my server.
Check to make sure the "blacklist_from ..." is in both the 2 files:
/opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf.in and
/opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf

Try:
1. editting /opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf.in (not /opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf, it will get overwritten) and enter the "blacklist_from ..."
2. then restart. I've restarted the whole server: `zmcontrol stop && zmcontrol start`.
3. then check if the "blacklist_from ..." is in the /opt/zimbra/conf/salocal.cf file (note: no ".in")

Hope that helps.

merely putting any changes in that file and restarting the server will make the changes to the salocal.cf and, as I mentioned above, it is rewritten by Zimbra. You should not edit the salocal.cf file.

hi frankman

it is working now.

i followed what you said.

thanks a lot.

To make sure I understand correctly, if I change the salocal.cf.in, I've got to restart the entire Zimbra for the changes to take effect in the salocal.cf file. Is that correct? Or is there some other component I should restart instead?
