Running two seperate policyd instances would do the same thing - one just throttling which is called before the second doing black/white/ grey-listing. This would also get around the problem of messages being passed by earlier postfix restrictions like permit_sasl_authenticated never being seen by policyd. An all-in-one approach with the current implementation would end up grey-listing authenticated senders. There may even be a case to be made for seperating the throttling function into a separate daemon. It looks like the throttling functionality doesn't work quite the way I expected. I'm going to need to do some scripting to maintain the throttle table the way I need it. I've a few suggestions for additional / changed throttling functionality (and may even have time over the summer to write them). I'll post something to the devel list in the next day or so. -Ronan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
