If you do want to update more often, you will have to create a custom template to handle the change.

"Due to upcoming data privacy regulations, we are making significant changes to how you access free GeoLite2 databases starting December 30, 2019. Learn more on our blog." https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-using-geolite2-databases/

Starting December 30, 2019, we will be requiring users of our GeoLite2 databases to register for a MaxMind account and obtain a license key in order to download GeoLite2 databases. We will continue to offer the GeoLite2 databases without charge, and with the ability to redistribute with proper attribution and in compliance with privacy regulations. In addition, we are introducing a new end-user license agreement to govern your use of the GeoLite2 databases. Previously, GeoLite2 databases were accessible for download to the public on our developer website and were licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
Starting December 30, 2019, downloads will no longer be served from our public GeoLite2 page, from geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/*, or from any other public URL.

See the section below [[GeoIP#Installation_and_Updating_of_geoip_v2_db|Installation of V2 db ]] for steps on how to migrate to the new download mechanism.}}
==Description==
The GeoIP plugin for qpsmtpd lets you know where your mail server is receiving mail from. If you're receiving too much spam from a particular location, this will help track it down. You can then use that info to reject connections from that place taking the load off your server.

==Installation==
<tabs container><tab name="SME 10">
yum install smeserver-geoip --enablerepo=smecontribs
Then configure your update key, create a Maxmind account and retrieve an AccountID and LicenseKey properties and keys to the geoip db config.
You can also leave as is and just get the update from rpms every 2 months or so...

<tab name="SME 9">
====Installation of legacy geoip v1 db====
those are still available for few time only for back compatibility purpose and to avoid a yum update mess, or if you do not trust third party repo, but be aware thos db are not updated anymore since April 2018 and were already only 80% accurate then.
yum install smeserver-geoip --enablerepo=smecontribs
config set UnsavedChanges no
signal-event geoip-update
====update of geoip v1 db====
if you have smeserver-geoip-1.1.2-7 already installed, this will keep you on the legacy version, only change new plugin comaptible with v1 and removal of cron update.
yum update --enablerepo=smecontribs
This is not updated anymore since 2018, you do not need the update key if you want to only use this.
====Installation and Updating of geoip v2 db====
As a result you will now need the OpenFusion repo to install smeserver-geoip We will be syncing their mirror in due course to speed up installs and updates.

yum --enablerepo=smeaddons install smeserver-extrarepositories-openfusion
signal-event yum-modify
config set UnsavedChanges no
====Updating to v2 with v1 DBs installed====
If you have the v1 DBs package smeserver-geoip-1.1.2-7 already installed and do not wish to update to v2 DBs you may perform updates safely, after making sure your smeserver-extrarepositories-openfusion is the latest, the following:
To carry out an install or update of the new v2 DBs you are required to firstly remove the exclude statement from the openfusion repo db
db yum_repositories delprop openfusion Exclude
signal-event yum-modify
signal-event yum-modify
You may then go ahead with the following to either install or update a v2 DB package
yum install smeserver-geoip2 --enablerepo=smecontribs,openfusion
yum update --enablerepo=smecontribs,openfusion
config set UnsavedChanges no
config set UnsavedChanges no
A configuration db for geoip has been created as part of the install
# config show geoip
geoip=service
status=enabled
====Fresh Installation of geoip v2 DBs====
To carry out an install or update of the new v2 DBs you are required to firstly remove the exclude statement from the openfusion repo db
db yum_repositories delprop openfusion Exclude
signal-event yum-modify
You may then go ahead with the following to either install or update a v2 DB package
yum install smeserver-geoip2 --enablerepo=smecontribs,openfusion
config set UnsavedChanges no
yum update smeserver-geoip --enablerepo=smecontribs,openfusion (preferred method)
A configuration db for geoip has been created as part of the install
# config show geoip
geoip=service
status=enabled
Now add Maxmind AccountID and LicenseKey properties and keys to the geoip db config
</tab>
</tabs>
===Installation===
==== Maxmind account to update db ====
Sign up for a MaxMind account (no purchase required) https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/
Important - Note your login details and in particular your AccountID and LicenseKey
Go to Services My Licence key and generate a licence key, carefully note the key details, multiple keys may be created.
The following config property keys and values will be used to set the geoip config db for ongoing updates see below
AccountID #######
LicenseKey xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
set them in db and expand the config file
db configuration setprop geoip LicenseKey "YOUR LIC KEY" AccountID "YOUR ACCT ID"
expand-template /etc/GeoIP.conf
====Update the db====
signal-event geoip-update
==Testing==
==Testing==
{{Note box| These tests use the V1 DB which will be increasingly out of date.}}
Now that the package and database are installed, we can test it (refer to Country Code list at end of page as required).
