Hm... when it comes to Postfix only, I update usually everyday, or every few days, list of manually blacklisted senders (in addition to RBLs) referred in smtpd_*_restrictions. It's kept in /etc/postfix, I could theoretically put it elsewhere, but why, if that directory is just meant for such things? I also sometimes update the aliases file, especially when users are created or deleted (also creating/deleting user accounts themselves means modifying /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, at least). There is also a webserver on the same machine, which needs configuration tasks on its own, and I prefer to configure eg. redirections (which may change quite often when I update the website) in main Apache config than in .htaccess, to have everything in one place. Definitely, it may be considered a "tiny fraction" of time the system is running, but for me it happens often enough that I don't want to go each time through remount-rw/remount-ro routine. Of course, I understand that someone may choose to do this as a "safety net" - as you said - but it's just not my thing :). -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ Postfix-users mailing list -- postfix-users@postfix.org To unsubscribe send an email to postfix-users-le...@postfix.org
