Our server had a power outage and on return Antirelayd has failed. I know it's not recommended but we have lots of customers who have this set up to only use their outgoing mail this way. When I try to enable via Tailwatchd it says this Failed to load Cpanel::Tailwatch::antirelayd1: at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/TailWatch/Utils/EnableDisable.pm line 25. The command I'm running is /usr/local/cpanel/bin/tailwatchd --enable=Cpanel::Tailwatch::antirelayd1 Ideas?

  Hello :) Here's additional information from the 11.52 release notes: antirelayd renamed to popbeforesmtp The antirelayd function allows users on an IP address who authenticated against the POP3 or IMAP service in the last 30 minutes to send emails via SMTP again without the need to re-authenticate. This leaves the IP address open as a relay, which poses a security risk. In cPanel & WHM version 11.52, we made the following changes to this function: [LIST]

  • We changed the name of the antirelayd function to popbeforesmtp(POP-before-SMTP).
  • This function defaults to disabled.
  • We moved the configuration of this option from WHM's Service Manager interface to the Allow users to relay mail if they use an IP address through which someone has validated an IMAP or POP3 login within the last hour (Pop-before-SMTP) option in the Mail section of WHM's https://docs.cpanel.net/whm/server-configuration/tweak-settings/#mail
