Re: emails not being greylisted

this could be why:

https://forum.iredmail.org/post69872.html#p69872

so it could be working but if the spf record is correct (contains the IP of the sender) it wouldn't be greylisted then, correct?

Re: emails not being greylisted

The logs are empty. No activity logged in iredapd.log. I do have some emails / domains with greylisting specifically turned off but not for all. The only activity in rotates logs is the service being restarted whenever I’ve made a change in settings.

Re: emails not being greylisted

It actually does appear to be working based on what I see in my maillog but it’s not logging to iredapd.log. That’s blank.

But some emails aren’t throttled so I assume that’s due to your handling / checking of spf records correct?

Did you change any rsyslog config file?

Throttling is not related to SPF checks, they're separated.
