Hi
I'm posting this message in case anyone would find it useful to have an
access policy delegation server that implements per recipient sender access.
I have been using check_sender_access as a deny list for senders that I
want to block from sending me email, usually emails that started off as
legitimate but after unsubscribing still keep coming. The issue is that
when I block a sender, I do so for any recipients that use the server,
not just me. While in practice that hasn't caused many issues, it always
worries me that I might block email other users want to receive.
Would a postfwd policy ruleset handle that?
Unlike access maps that give an answer based on a single property,
policy lookups support multi-criteria decisions by design.
Yes, I think you're right that existing policy delegation servers can
also handle this. Nevertheless I tried a different design with a single
process managing multiple connections via python selectors which use
various underlying methods such as epoll on Linux rather than a forking
or preforking model. Not sure how that will compare for performance or
reliability or whether I will even notice the difference on my low volumes.
