I'd like SA to be involved in that game > too! Greylisting is only in beta, snapshot, right now. I do not believe that it will have the ability to include SA or other application. It should, theoritically, reject_unverified_sender for the first N seconds after it verifies as OK. It should only look at the sending IP address, envelope sender, and envelope recipient. I believe this will be a wonderful added feature. However, it is still limited. If I am wrong about this, please let me know. The term MTA is really broad. If you really mean in the smtpd (where RBL is involved) or cleanup (where header/body checks are performed) applications, I don't think that it possible to inject SA at either point. That is why the content_filter was created. To work with an external application, Postfix needs to use a transport to make it work. In my case, I have Postfix pipe messages to Procmail, which becomes the mail processor for the MTA. I use it at the gateway so this is a site/relay configuration. Procmail becomes much more useful as I can also perform attachment checks, white/black list checks, and real header/body checks. I also create notifications and user/global tagging so users can independently filter into _spam_ subfolders in their MDA. I also created a Webmin module to manage all of that as well as the quarantine and log reports. Although your best performance is to use the Postfix RBL and header/body checks, they do tend to be the least effective. I found it better to let Postfix be an MTA and let Procmail be a mail processor as the purposes are their core design and strengths. Postfix smtpd_??_restrictions and greylisting will be best suited for the MTA. I still believe a good post-processor will be needed. --Larry ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.
