Real emails retry after an interval and spam does not so it eliminates about 90-95%. Couple with reasonable Postfix checks like making sure the sender domain exists, etc and a mail client with internal filtering. With the above in place I see maybe 1-2 actual spams in my inbox a week and averaging about eight a day in my spam folder. Postgrey is in portage and it'll take you about almost two full minutes to get setup and working. I suggest making the the greylist time 30 seconds and the whitelist time 32 days. kashani
That sounds really nice. Would you say sending back a 450 error is 100% reliable? Which config option makes postfix check to see if the sender domain exists. I can't find it in /etc/postfix/main.cf. - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
