I don't know specifically of a proxy offering that functionality, but I too would find it useful. We are running policyd v 1.82 on a mysql server, which is used by 4 smtp gateways in 2 data centers. If ever there are wan issues and the policyd server is unreachable, smtp connections to postfix simply fail during this time. A proxy which could simply say "Dunno" when the policy server is unreachable would be very useful indeed. If you do come across such a beast, do drop us a line! Joe
