Quoting POSTSCREEN_README: postscreen(8) is part of a multi-layer defense. * As the first layer, postscreen(8) blocks connections from zombies and other spambots that are responsible for about 90% of all spam. It is implemented as a single process to make this defense as inexpensive as possible. .... * The fourth layer provides heavy-weight content inspection with external content filters. Typical examples are Amavisd-new, SpamAssassin, and Milter applications. In the last layer you get to combine different spamminess indicators into one verdict. Wietse
