I use it to bypass OpenBSD's spamd/greylisting. I have seen a quick bunch of Postfix rejects of mail from one IP at tom.com (China) targetting a non-existing spamtrap address. That's about it. No more spam than before AFAICT given that even one getting by spamd is so rare that people are amazed that they have to delete one every blue moon. You get to choose your level of acceptance but I would not use it for outright whitelisting. i.e. for me, zen is still in the mix. *** NOTE *** Please DO NOT CC me. I <am> subscribed to the list. Mail to the sender address that does not originate at the list server is tarpitted. The reply-to: address is provided for those who feel compelled to reply off list. Thankyou.
