I would point you to your favorite MTA for more info. No argument. A 2 second sound-byte for weeks of implementation ;) I just finished reading through the 3rd edition Sendmail bat book on milters. One of the current milters would have to be modified (feeping creaturism) or a new one created and the sequencing of milters well documented for installation so it can use the SA tagging to add to the statistics.

My guess would be that to do it well would be for a project to support Sendmail, Exim, postfix and qmail(?) as MTA. Unfortunately I just the barest exposure to Sendmail. > My tip: qpsmtpd is apparently a fantastic tool for building arbitrary perl code to do this kind of stuff at the SMTP level. I'll check it out.

Sounds like an MTA thing, not really a SpamAssassin thing. I would point you to your favorite MTA for more info. > Has anyone done off-server LDAP user validation like this? No but it sounds like a great concept.
