Problem with mail rate limiting

Virtualmin
1

Hello,

This is my first post on this forum.

I have problem with mail rate limiting feature of Virtualmin. When I set the rate limit I get this message:

=====
Starting milter-greylist server …
… startup failed : Starting milter-greylist (via systemctl): Job for milter-greylist.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded. See “systemctl status milter-greylist.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details. FAIL

if I run command systemctl status milter-greylist.service a root I see this:

=====
milter-greylist.service - SYSV: Milter Greylist Daemon

any idea how to fix it?.

Regards.

No help?:

Job for milter-greylist.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded

checking /etc/mail/greylist.conf I found this:

=====
ratelimit “domain_14535384548976” rcpt 15000 / 1d
racl blacklist from /.@domain.net/ ratelimit “domain_14535384548976” msg “Message quota exceeded”
racl whitelist from /.@domain.net/
ratelimit “virtualmin_limit” rcpt 900 / 1d
racl blacklist from /.*/ ratelimit “virtualmin_limit” msg “Message quota exceeded”
racl whitelist default

can you confirm if this is a correct setup?, I tried both limiting daily limit to 900 emails and later to 15000.
