I wanted to add one of the solutions that work very well for me: ASSP http://assp.sourceforge.net/
A open source anti spam tool written in perl, that includes a lot of ways to fight spam. You may choose yourself which ones you would like to use or not. It works as a proxy in front of your MTA, you bind your MTA to localhost or use a dedicated machine and let ASSP do the "outside" talking. Many of the modules have test modes, so you can play around prior to activating them and well, it really helped me a lot on the past 3 years. It of course had it bugs, just like dbmail had, but the tool itself is well maintained. So if you find and error and report it, it will get fixed soonish. One sad thing is that there website isn´t updated frequently. It comes in two basic flavors: ASSP v1.x ASSP v.2.x Version 2 has more features, is multithreaded but also consumes more resources. Version 1 lacks some of the functionality, but works very nice as well ... Give it a try ... Cheers and a happy new year, Daniel _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
