[SAtalk] announce: spampd - spam proxy daemon

2002-05-27 Thread Max Paperno
Hello fellow spam assassins, If anyone is interested, I (finally) posted a script I've been using for the past month or so in our hosting operation as an "advanced" content filter with Postfix. It's an SMTP proxy/relay server (in Perl) which calls SA to scan messages. Similar to spamproxyd b
