1. Set up postfix (or whatever MTA you are using) to reject as much as possible at SMTP time. If done right postfix can reject 90+% (depending on how much /what type of spam your domains get) with pretty much zero FPs... Lots of examples down in the UCE/Virus section here: http://www.postfix.org/docs.html 2. Add amavisd-new+spamassassin to the mix, and tag+deliver anything it detects as spam into the junk folder using sieve... http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve#SpamAssassin_tagged_mail_filtering There is also a plugin for dovecot that makes it easy for users to reclassify stuff as spam or not spam by simply moving the messages to the appropriate folder, but I think it is mainly designed for DSPAM... anyone using it with spamassassin? -- Best regards, Charles
