More on cPanel Greylisting Daemon

Enabling the cPanel Greylisting Daemon “cpgreylistd” guards a server against spam from sources that it is unable to identify. In simple words, putting emails from senders we don’t know on the greylist is the process. Users may easily take control of their email filtering choices by using cPanel to toggle greylisting on or off for specified domains.

How to Enable cPanel Greylisting Daemon?

1. Initially, log in to cPanel.

2. Go to Home >> Email >> Configure Greylisting.

3. If we have multiple domains, find the domain in the list or enter its name in the search box.

4. Then, click the toggle switch to turn Greylisting on or off for that domain.

5. Lastly, to apply the same setting to all domains, click the gear icon and choose Enable All or Disable All.

The only thing we’ll see if the server has disabled greylisting is an On/Off toggle. To enable and switch on Greylisting, click on it.

Role of Enabled cPanel Greylisting Daemon

After enabling the cPanel greylisting Daemon, it functions as follows:

1. The Greylisting Daemon temporarily rejects emails that arrive at the server, stating that the server is busy and that we should try again later.

2. According to SMTP standards, reputable MTAs like Exim will automatically try delivering the email again after a predetermined amount of time.

3. These retry attempts are used by the Greylisting Daemon to figure out between spam and valid emails. While many spam sources will quit up and move on to other targets, legitimate senders will attempt delivery once more.

4. A valid email’s source is whitelisted when it is retried and approved by the server, preventing further greylisting checks for similar emails in the future.
