Hello,

I am using Postfix 2.9.4 on CentOS 6.3 as a gateway server with the following postscreen settings:

postscreen_dnsbl_threshold = 2
postscreen_dnsbl_sites =
        b.barracudacentral.org*2,
        zen.spamhaus.org*2,
        psbl.surriel.com*2
postscreen_dnsbl_action = enforce
postscreen_greet_action = enforce

Sometimes I receive complaints from some mail server operators that barracudacentral causes blocks of mail from their server, and "Very few email providers use Barracuda for their RBL's, so it is not an RBL we check very often or rely on".

I remember that, when I had set up this gateway server, I had researched and found that barracudacentral should be OK.

My questions now are:

 * Based on your experience and advice, should I keep the above
   postscreen settings? Any suggestions?
 * Should I avoid postscreen_dnsbl_sites and only use amavis to make
   decisions through scoring?  How are you implementing such blocks?

Thanks in advance,
Nick
