Package: sendmail-base Version: 8.13.8-3 Severity: normal Tags: patch *** Please type your report below this line *** Expample acces file contain these lines:
Connect:[IPv6:::1] RELAY GreetPause:[IPv6:::1] 0 ClientRate:[IPv6:::1] 0 ClientConn:[IPv6:::1] 0 Adding simmilar lines with a real IPv6 just does not work. In fact, ipv6 localhost aka ::1 is allowed to relay by another mecanism. These lines never match and do nothing. So that exemple is really confusing! Correct syntax is: Connect:IPv6:::1 RELAY GreetPause:IPv6:::1 0 ClientRate:IPv6:::1 0 ClientConn:IPv6:::1 0 Moreover, fixing that resulted in improved performance on local delivery! You can test how telnet ::1 25 show the prompt faster.
