This is the same way you generally use the VBounce plugin. Then do the
same thing for your "bypass" rule.
That is pretty much what I wanted to do. The best way I know to make
Postfix use SA is with Amavisd.
Spamassassin can use whatever custom rule you care to come up with. It
will happily use a regex with hundreds of names listed. The question is
whether the rule would cause a noticeable slowdown in processing speed.
The only way to find out is to try it. Using compiled rules would
probably help here.
Thanks. We are looking at roughly 70,000 names and always growing. If I
gave it sufficient hardware, would you expect that to be practical, or
is that totally ridiculous? Any options for a database look up here?
