Hi All,
I'm attempting to come up with a better solution for detecting email
customers who attempt to send email campaigns using my mail servers.
I'd like to find a way to have postfix log the sender and recipient
addresses into a flat file, as well as the message id and timestamp.

Hi there,

We have a new postfix install (v 2.5.6) that we are trying to get going.
My problem is ... I setup that server to be our gateway in our DNS so the

FYI for FreeBSD users of the latest -CURRENT. I will not be able to test
this until later this week / weekend, but just in case someone else runs into
