mail control block IPs in CSF problems

Post by dvk01 »

I am a bit concerned about this new addition to MSFE
•MailControl: Added icon next to IP addresses to block in csf

I don't know if I have my server set up differently to others, but that potentially allows you to block IP's on the server, if you are a bit trigger happy and not reading very well.

There should not be an icon on IPV6 server entries or any of the server IP addresses. At the moment it is only 127.0.0.1 that has not got a blocking icon

On my server all forum replies appear in mail control as the website IP on the server not a local host IP number as do wordpress comment & moderation notifications
Also mailman is using IPV6 by default on Cpanel now not a 127 IP address as does CXS

We've now added a check for local IP's and an intermediate page in the block process with details IP address information before confirmation of the block.
