I much prefer the OpenBSD options including spamd and smtpd to the
Linux options. Linux options seem to focus on filtering and
inspection which IMHO is dangerous and less secure than
dropping/prevention especially with Linux tools. Postfix is decent
wherever it runs, of course.

Good point, the time spent would probably be better spent being open
with them. One benefit over gmail that smtpd can nicely provide
with automatic folder creation on an OpenBSD setup is disposable
addresses where your kids will see more of what they want and less of
what others want them to unless they choose to. Not sure that is worth
the time spent though for the few that get past gmails scanning.
