We are getting demands from large ISP's - Comcast, AOL, AT&T - that

/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp ?
How are other qmail users handling this?
i'm also interested in this feature. Have you found how to filter
outgoing messages? for incoming messages I use maildrop
you can still use simscan. the trick is to make your customers send
their mail through simscan.

I'm not sure that spam-filtering outgoing mail is a good idea-- I've
never run into an implementation that doesn't annoy legitimate customers
sending legitimate mail-- and simscan is, as far as I know, specifically
designed not to allow it. If RELAYCLIENT is set, simscan checks for
viruses but it doesn't run SpamAssassin.
Am I missing something?
