Geographic IP filter

jfpoux | 2005-08-10 22:19

I've committed a small per country IP filter. It allows to drop connections from certain countries. It is based on GeoIP from MaxMind. The plugin comes with their free database edition.

You can check it out at

Meanwhile 0.4c is closing. No errors found for 1000+ mail processed in production(after latest bug fixes commit), so expect it for soon.

I used to use the country RBLs until the RBL servers became very unstable.

Also use/subscribe to maxmind and by query the ip country code directly via the binary database, I imagine the performance and reliability is much much better than relying on questionable RBL servers dns queries.
