Hamy,

Hi, i would like to use unix socket instead of inet in amavisd for postfix to communicate with it and then secure it by setting appropriate permissions. However, i dot not want to disable the default AM.PDP-SOCK policy which is required for amavisd-release and maybe other scripts(and amavisd-milter) to work. also i might need to have multiple smtp unix sockets in future with different set of policy banks applied to them. How can one do so? it's easily possibly
to do that with inet ports, but what about unix sockets?
[...]

amavisd-new-2.7.0 release notes, July 1, 2011 :

- a policy bank may now be loaded based on a path name of a Unix socket
  receiving a connection.

  Example use:

    @listen_sockets = (
      "$helpers_home/amavisd.sock1",
      "$helpers_home/amavisd.sock2",
      "$helpers_home/amavisd.sock3",
    );

    $interface_policy{"$helpers_home/amavisd.sock1"} = 'UX-S1';
    $interface_policy{"$helpers_home/amavisd.sock2"} = 'UX-S2';
    $interface_policy{"$helpers_home/amavisd.sock3"} = 'UX-S3';

    $policy_bank{'UX-S1'} = { ... };
    $policy_bank{'UX-S2'} = { ... };
    $policy_bank{'UX-S3'} = { ... };


amavisd-new-2.8.0 release notes:

- load all (both) applicable policy banks when %interface_policy contain
  both a "SOCK" entry and a Unix socket path name; and similarly when it
  contains both the "IPaddress:port" and a "port" entries. Previously
  the "SOCK" policy bank was not loaded when a socket path name entry
  existed in %interface_policy, and similarly a port-only -based policy
bank was not loaded when a more specific "IPaddress:port" entry existed;
