Resolved Can´t stop greylisting

[SalvadorS]

Hello,

Very strange problem:

root@xxx:/var/log# /etc/init.d/postgrey stop

[ ok ] Stopping postfix greylisting daemon: postgrey.

root@xxx:/var/log# service postgrey status

[FAIL] postgrey is not running ... failed!

root@xxx:/var/log# ps -ef|grep postgrey

postgrey 6790 1 0 ago24 ? 00:05:27 /usr/sbin/postgrey --pidfile=/var/run/postgrey.pid --daemonize --inet=10023 --delay=60 --max-age=20 --auto-whitelist-clients=10

root 28869 22856 0 11:13 pts/0 00:00:00 grep postgrey

So, there is a process that is there... why? Any Solution?

Hi SalvadorS,

"Greylisting" is part of your mail-handler and can be switched off over your Plesk Control Panel, or via CLI commands.

Greylisting (Linux) ( Plesk 12.5 online documentation )​

/usr/local/psa/bin/grey_listing --update-server -status off​

Use the "--help" string for more CLI options for this Plesk Utility, or pls. see the Plesk documentation for it:

/usr/local/psa/bin/grey_listing --help

grey_listing: Greylisting ( Plesk 12.5 - Reference for Command-Line Utilities, Plesk for Linux )​
