Apologies if my random ignorance has been a bit much. Thanks for taking the time to look at the posibilities and also discuss them with added words for me to look in to. The mention of Policy Servers and Milters along with the information that is supplied to them by Postfix causes me to come up wi

Not sure when it happened but when I had to reinstall it on my Pi the Pi was missing, ISTR, rsyslog so it was not the fault of Postfix. I just had to put rsyslog back in and logging was back to normal. Your link has the glimmer of a plan but would I not be back to having to periodically scan stdou

Yes. It was just an example. However many of these uninvited warts don't publish such information and I have no doubt that they periodically roll addresses. No I am not going to send them an e-mail so they can pretend to go away. The rest of my logs are stuffed with "user<>" and "unknown" or "does

I get it might be a bit flakey from a security perspective and should come with warnings but it is my box. As an aside the contents of my /etc/postfix directory are owned by root so I assume Postfix needs root priveledges to access them. That seems like its already halfway down that particular ra

I know of such things but I am not sure that they are the solution to my problem in as much as they are lists of known spammers.  Other than the Hotmail SEO/APP Cretins I have, fingers crossed, only suffered from two persistent idiots that are rejected in headers_check.  Not that any of them pay
