=head1 NAME denysoft_greylist =head1 DESCRIPTION Plugin to implement the 'greylisting' algorithm proposed by Evan Harris in http://projects.puremagic.com/greylisting/. Greylisting is a form of denysoft filter, where unrecognised new connections are temporarily denied for some initial period, to foil spammers using fire-and-forget spamware, http_proxies, etc. Greylisting adds two main features: it tracks incoming connections using a triplet of remote IP address, sender, and recipient, rather than just using the remote IP; and it uses a set of timeout periods (black/grey/white) to control whether connections are allowed, instead of using connection counts or rates. This plugin allows connection tracking on any or all of IP address, sender, and recipient (but uses IP address only, by default), with configurable greylist timeout periods. A simple dbm database is used for tracking connections, and relayclients are always allowed through. The plugin supports whitelisting using the whitelist_soft plugin (optional). =head1 CONFIG The following parameters can be passed to denysoft_greylist: =over 4 =item remote_ip Whether to include the remote ip address in tracking connections. Default: 1. =item sender Whether to include the sender in tracking connections. Default: 0. =item recipient Whether to include the recipient in tracking connections. Default: 0. =item deny_late Whether to defer denials during the 'mail' hook until 'data_post' e.g. to allow per-recipient logging. Default: 0. =item black_timeout The initial period, in seconds, for which we issue DENYSOFTs for connections from an unknown (or timed out) IP address and/or sender and/or recipient (a 'connection triplet'). Default: 50 minutes. =item grey_timeout The subsequent 'grey' period, after the initial black blocking period, when we will accept a delivery from a formerly-unknown connection triplet. If a new connection is received during this time, we will record a successful delivery against this IP address, which whitelists it for future deliveries (see following). Default: 3 hours 20 minutes. =item white_timeout The period after which a known connection triplet will be considered stale, and we will issue DENYSOFTs again. New deliveries reset the timestamp on the address and renew this timeout. Default: 36 days. =item mode ( denysoft | testonly | off ) Operating mode. In 'denysoft' mode we log and track connections and issue DENYSOFTs for black connections; in 'testonly' mode we log and track connections as normal, but never actually issue DENYSOFTs (useful for seeding the database and testing without impacting deliveries); in 'off' mode we do nothing (useful for turning greylisting off globally if using per_recipient configs). Default: denysoft. =item db_dir Path to a directory in which the greylisting DB will be stored. This directory must be writable by the qpsmtpd user. By default, the first usable directory from the following list will be used: =over 4 =item /var/lib/qpsmtpd/greylisting =item I/var/db (where BINDIR is the location of the qpsmtpd binary) =item I/config =back =item per_recipient Flag to indicate whether to use per-recipient configs. =item per_recipient_db Flag to indicate whether to use per-recipient greylisting databases (default is to use a shared database). Per-recipient configuration directories, if determined, supercede I. =back =item p0f Enable greylisting only when certain p0f criteria is met. The single required argument is a comma delimited list of key/value pairs. The keys are the following p0f TCP fingerprint elements: genre, detail, uptime, link, and distance. To greylist emails from computers whose remote OS is windows, you'd use this syntax: p0f genre,windows To greylist only windows computers on DSL links more than 3 network hops away: p0f genre,windows,link,dsl,distance,3 =head1 BUGS Database locking is implemented using flock, which may not work on network filesystems e.g. NFS. If this is a problem, you may want to use something like File::NFSLock instead. =head1 AUTHOR Written by Gavin Carr .
