I'm seeing over 99% of messages (anywhere between 10k and 40k per day)
being blocked at the smtp connection using client restrictions and
spamhaus.org RBL (postfix + postgrey). I'm not sure how many are blocked
due to greylisting (what's an easy way to find this?). But this is just a
personal system for friends and family for the most part. I suspect my
methods would be too draconian for others. Only a hundred or so messages
are delivered to users per day and of those not many seem to trigger the
spamassassin thresholds.
