You were asking for greylisting solutions that work with Courier, and this fits the bill. Yes, it is independent of the MTA, but that's a (rather large) advantage from my perspective. Why do you want your MTA to do something that can be done by a small daemon with a well-defined task combined with a lightning-fast packet filter? Seperating the two gives you some nice options for scalability. Pf is very fast at it's job, so you can handle a ton of incoming SMTP connections without a lot of power. And if you realy need to you can use the round-robin feature of pf's rdr to have multiple MTA's behind the packet filter. If you have a low-volume mailserver just use the Python filter. m ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
