all i want is that maildrop reads my white list addresses files, if address not found in the file the mail drops otherwise mail will deliver to default mailbox. i google out but no solution found yet,

exception { if (!lookup($SENDER, 'whitelist.txt')) { to ".Unknown/" #exit } } The script as shown simply delivers all unknown mail to a Maildir called Unknown which is much safer than just dropping it. However, realize that you're taking a very big risk of missing out on legit mail, you can comment out the "to Unknown" line and uncomment the exit line in order to completely drop the message.

There is a big use for this. AOL has a child mode where you can create accounts for your kids. In that mode, email is only accepted from users that the parents add to the kid's address book. The above is a close implementation of that. For AOL, they just drop it (or reject it, I'm not sure which). - -- Regards...

Lately we've taken to just referring to new mac installations as "Unix" installations when presenting proposals and updates. For some reason, they have no problem with that. -- /.
