Am I mistaken but in a postfix/amavisd-new setup you don't use spamd at all? > > I want them to let amavisd do all the pre-processing before > allowing mail to enter the queue.

The cons seem to outweigh the pro's (you need to hold open FOR A LONG TIME, AND LOTS OF THEM, many smtp sessions.) > > For the mail that remains, allow it into the queue and let > postfix run it's own header / body mime checks, etc and > finish by delivering to the internal mail server. > Postfix first, it will drop lots of crap before you have to send it to amavisd/SA. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
