I get an error message when I try to send a mail and I get the following error message:
Quote:
15: Peer connect failure (the host has refused the connection).

I have not changed anything in the configuration of my email program (Pegasus) and I don't get any error message when I check for new mail.

I've reset the firewall. It had captured some spammer IP address ranges that may have caused you to not be able to connect. When you have a free moment, please try again.

I just tried to send out the Bookshelf news with the latest posting announcement and was kicked out of PF.

The response form the PF SMTP was

452 4.5.3 Too many recipients.

It's never done this before.

Hmm... that is a weird one. How many email addresses were you sending the message to in one message?

Okay, this has been fixed. I had applied a patch to sendmail to prevent dictionary-based spam, which also included massive amounts of recipients in a single message. I've removed the patch, and will look into tweaking it later.

Very Happy Worked, I could send the messages, thanks.
