Hello rob0 It is obvious that in order to implement bogofilter with postfix I had to go to the official website of bogofilter, I have read documentation, the FAQ, and even before making any post in the list of postfix I did in theirs, I presented my problem to reach a solution. but I had the same sort of tripping over a list as active as postfix, which is why I have not yet received a reply from them. home.com use as an example, and I know there is a domain registered by someone else, I modified my logs, changing the hostname, as well as IP address, such as domains, is a policy that before you use any post lists on the Internet. problems? MailScanner Maybe not the most recommended to work with postfix, I do not know the reasons. It happens that when I started working here and was already installed, I have had, seeing that it works well, detects and removes viruses from messages. if something works well, it is better not touch it, do not you think? I have implemented in my external mail servers several mechanisms to stop spammers, I am using postgrey + policy-weight and blacklists such as Spamhaus (Zen) in addition smtpd_helo_restrictions. with this slows down the spam, but I keep getting spam messages. is therefore wish to implement bogofilter. No offense, maybe not as genius as it is you, or have that much experience you have. but I am interested in improving and maintaining my system with the knowledge I possess Regards Michel
