Hi, thank you for the help. Terry, I checked out: Postgrey instead. It doesn't 
do what I want (system-wide cfg file) and no rate-limiting, so I decided to try 
my own hand at it (I still need to check out Amavisd):

I wrote a small perl script and it's able to OK and REJECT the stuff BUT:
1. How do I handle local mail being delivered by programs like 'mail'?
So long as the mail arrives via port 25, I have no issues and my policy script 
is able to see the stuff, but when i do a 'mail root', it doesn't work.
2. I assume that after and prior to the, MAIL FROM: RCPT TO:, normal Postfix 
handling and rules apply?? I hope that's not getting turned off! All I want to 
do is stick my snout in and say yes/no to specific users and JUNK everyone else.

3. How do I handle bounced mail and postmaster.. create a white-list file for 
postmaster and put a rule saying PASS all.. will that create a loophole where 
scumbags can spoof the FROM: field???

Please don't waste your time answering in detail. Just a rough yes/no, 
possible/not-possible will suffice. I guess I'd have to read the Definitive 
guide thoroughly to get a handle on this properly.
