OK, three comments about this: The first is that this spam is a formmail.pl spam. There is a way of abusing some mail form perl script thingy so it does this sort of spam. That is why it mentions about feedback. The second is there are free alternatives to MAPS. I have the following in my postfix config: maps_rbl_domains = relays.osirusoft.com, or.orbl.org, relays.ordb.org, dialups.relays.osirusoft.com Last of all, you may want to look at spambouncer (http://www.spambouncer.org/) which uses procmail. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.eye-net.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
