We're already using the BotNet plugin, and it really helps. One or two FPs from
time-to-time, but nothing we can't live with. We turned score done in steps to
3.0, in stages, and that seems to be just about right.
FYI - also use DCC, Razor, a relatively well trained bayes database and
'standard' blacklists.
We front-end SA with smf-zombie and smf-greylist milters, and that actually
catches most crud before it gets anywhere near SA.
Finally, we wrap everything up with MimeDefang, which deals with all the stuff
SA, Clam, and the milters can't cope with.
We're still in pretty good shape, but we certainly notice that the Sane
Security stuff isn't there any more.
Mup.
