Here is my personal MX & MSA on single Linux box.
/etc/postfix/ is null
/etc/postfix-msa/ is the mail submission agent on port 587 and smpts on port
465
/etc/postfix-mx/ is the mail exchanger on port 25
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
# Mail Submission Agent (MSA)
# Mail Exchanger (MX)
master_service_d
One of my favorite anti spam measures is auto add repeat RBL hits, no PTR
hits, etc. to system firewall.
Here are a few entire network permanent firewall blocks for example as well.
ARIN--Level3-Sendlabs-DynDNS.org___-CIDR[63.209.253.224/27]
ARIN--Level3-Sendlabs-DynDNS.org___-CIDR[63.211.192.12
Which makes their domain an easy target for block lists.

Subject: Regexp for blocking dynamic hosts?
Hi,
I got a lot of spam lately from dynamic hosts so gradually I have been
adding rules to block them with the help of the rules
With smtpd_delay_reject = yes
Which of the restriction sections was the following logged rejection for?
Or put another way, in which of the restriction sections was the rejection
option "reject_rbl_client pbl.spamhaus.org" that resulted in the logged
rejection?
Restriction Options:
smtpd_clie
"I think he just wants to know which smtpd restrictions list contains the
rule that caused the rejection."
Correct.

Yes it does cause a problem.
It does not indicate the stage the rejection is associated with (CONNECT,
HELO, FROM, RCPT, etc.).

When using the "smtpd_delay_reject = yes" option, all log messages indicate
RCPT stage rejection. e.g. "... NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from ..."; regardless of
which type of restriction an option is listed under.
For instance a rejection based on the following will indicate RCPT rather than
CONNECT

My original post was regarding postfix. But you and others who seemed more
interested in taking it off topic to squelch the request for postfix.org to
publish an SPF record.
I oblige the challenge and then you all start complain about thread being
off topic. Well it wouldn't be off topic if
US financial services industry group endorses SPF, so most banks, credit
unions, brokerages, etc. publish an SPF record.
MAAWG: "At the very least, senders should incorporate SPF records for their
mailing domains".
Austrailan DoD Recommends SPF
Google.com, GoogleMail.com, Gmail.com,
Comcast.
What is stupid is to be so opposed to anti spam tools that have no
significant downside.
Makes one wonder about true motives.

Yahoo has ulterior motives? They wish to push their domain keys.
Others probably likewise have ulterior motives.
Do you also oppose SPF, and if so what is your motives?
