<html> <b>NAME</b><br> CheckFromHeader - slow.conf configuration item <p> <b>SYNOPSIS</b><br> <code><ul> CheckFromHeader = [true | false] </ul></code> <p> <b>DESCRIPTION</b><br> The CheckFromHeader slow.conf configuration item can allow the <code>From:</code> header to be checked for validity. It also allows the host part of the SMTP MAIL FROM: address to be check for valitity. <p> If this CheckFromHeader slow.conf configuration item is declared as true (or if it is omitted which defaults to true), the Milter will first check the <code>From:</code> header (if there is one in the message). If that header's host part cannot be looked up with <i>gethostbyname</i>, that bad status is marked by setting the <b>frm</b> event (as described in the <a href="../slowedit/events.html">standard event set</a>). <p> If this CheckFromHeader slow.conf configuration item is false, the above check is skipped. In the event you have a slow network, or slow DNS lookups, you may wish to define this CheckFromHeader as false, because <i>gethostbyname</i> may cause your Milter to time out and thus to become inefective. <p> </body> </html>
