Watch your attribute lines, there, Mark.

Indeed! That does sound useful, and I've just added it to my config file. Thanks, Pierre! Mark, check your /etc/postfix/main.cf file. For myself, I've put those anti-spam measures at the end of the file. If you don't already have the relevant entries, you want to add them. If you want to do lookups against the Orbz databases for known/reported spam sources, add this one: maps_rbl_domains = relays.orbd.org, inputs.orbz.org Then, add the following two entries: smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_unknown_client, permit_mynetworks, reject_maps_rbl, check_relay_domains smtpd_client_restrictions = reject_unknown_client, reject_unauth_pipelining, reject_maps_rbl If you don't do lookups, you wouldn't include the maps_rbl_domains entry, and you'd take out the reject_maps_rbl parts of the above two entries. --Dave -- David Guntner GEnie: Just say NO! http://www.akaMail.com/pgpkey/davidg or key server for PGP Public key
