I'm blocking around 2 million spams a day. Yes - I do sender verification. I also use Spamhaus. And there are a few dozen other tricks I use to weed out spam up front. I was already blocking over 95% of spam up front. I think I'm up o 98% now. So this new trick took a huge bite out of the remaining spam that I process with Spam Assassin. Right now I think that most all the messages I run through SA are nonspam. I'm trying to figure out ways to ID nonspam in ACLs to reduce SA load. -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
