I need to block all email from a specified domain. With SME7 I use /var/qmail/control/badmailfrom, but it is not available in SME6. How can i add it? Or is there an alternative way to block all email from a specified domain?

I am running a couple of sme6 servers and on all of them the file badmailfrom does not exist:

[root@netkeeper /]# ls /var/qmail/control/
badrcptto          databytes       helohost           rcpthosts
bouncefrom         defaultdomain   locals             smtproutes
bouncehost         defaulthost     mailrules.default  virtualdomains
concurrencylocal   doublebounceto  me
concurrencyremote  envnoathost     plusdomain
[root@netkeeper /]#

I think it might have something to do with the version of qmail used??

More likely mailfront or e-smith-email

ls /var/qmail/control
badhelo           concurrencyremote  helohost           rcpthosts
badmailfrom       databytes          locals             smtproutes
badrcptto         defaultdomain      mailrules.default  virtualdomains
bouncefrom        defaulthost        me
bouncehost        doublebounceto     patterns.default
concurrencylocal  envnoathost        plusdomain

rpm -qa qmail
qmail-1.03-08

rpm -qa e-smith-email
e-smith-email-4.15.0-07gr07

rpm -qa e-smith-mailfront
e-smith-mailfront-1.5.0-13gr07

rpm -qa mailfront
mailfront-0.91-8es

As a starting point see

also
yum update

/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot

My qmail version were indeed the same as yours but all the others were older. I followed the howto of the link you supplied now they are updated but the same version as yours yet (and still no badmailfrom). I have'nt got yum installed on this server. I will install the packages manually later. Hopfully badmailfrom will then be born.
