    Hello all,

    I have a Qmail server that is using relays.ordb.org

    As you probaly know this shut down two years ago. But is now sending all requests as spam. No one is recieving there emails.

    this a Standard Qmail,with a hacked qmail-send witch intergrates with Mysqld.

    is not installed with qmailroks, or supervise. Can't find the config text file.

    how can we remove traces or referrences to relays ordb.org

    Thanks your help.

    Look in your /etc/inetd.conf

    There SHOULD be the SMTP line that calls the service. You can simple remove the -r relays.ordb.org or replace it with a different blocklist.

    I've just looked at inetd.conf ... it's completely stock standard, with no references to ordb.org... it hasn't been touched or modified since the day the server was set up!

    It depends on what versions you are using tcpserver etc. Can you find /service/qmail-smtpd/run ?

    There's nothing that resembles /service/qmail-smtp/run... All the qmail stuff is installed at /var/qmail/bin For example: /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd, /var/qmail/bin/qmail-qstat etc...

    The server is running Linux Kernal 2.4.22 (gcc version 3.2.3) in a slackware distro.

    Qmail looks to be: qmail-1.03-cluster-1.05.

    thanks for the help!

    Apologies , have not touched Qmail for too long, normally my clusters are maintained by Inter7. For me they have a rbl text file where I can just edit what I want.

    when I grep for ordb.org it only seems to appear in qmail-smtp.... so it looks like i'll need to recompile from src without the references to the database
