Hi!

I was thinking in activating this

RBL: bl.spamcop.net
RBL: zen.spamhaus.org

in Home »Service Configuration »Exim Configuration Manager

If I do it and one day my own IP is listed in one of those blacklists... what would happen? If someone inside my server sends an email to an account hosted in my server (or for example to himself), it will receive an bounced email?

I should add my IPs in "Whitelist: IP addresses that should not be checked against RBLs"?

Thanks,
Francisco

Hello,

Local emails should not be blocked by default under that scenario, however you may want to consider enabling the following option:

Exempt servers in the same netblock as this one from RBL checks

Per it's description:

If enabled, any server in the same IANA netblock will not be subject to RBL checks.

Thank you.
