+# Please do not use this action unless you are certain that fail2ban
+# does not result in "false positives" for your deployment.  False
+# positive reports could serve a mis-favor to the original cause by
+# flooding corresponding contact addresses, and complicating the work
+# of administration personnel responsible for handling (verified) legit
+# complains.

+# Please consider using e.g. sendmail-whois-lines.conf action which
+# would send the reports with relevant information to you, so the
+# report could be first reviewed and then forwarded to a corresponding
+# contact if legit.
