<b>NAME</b><br>
LookBackOne - slow.conf configuration item
<p>
<b>SYNOPSIS</b><br>
<code><ul>
LookBackOne = [ true | false ]
</ul></code>
<p>
<b>DESCRIPTION</b><br>
The LookBackOne slow.conf configuration item, if true, 
cause the milter to ignore the IP number if it is one
of the MX servers found for the local host. Instead
of using the connecting IP number, Received: headers
will be screened to locat the IP number that connected
to tht MX server.
<p>
When <b>slowmilt</b> first starts to run, it looks up the MX
records for the local host (or the host defined by the 
<a href="localhostname.html">LocalHostName</a> configuration
item). It does this so that it can detect
if a message was from one of its MX servers.
<p>
By default, LookBackOne is defined to false. If you do not run
this milter on your MX servers, you should define this item
as true.
