I've just implemented Spamdyke. I'm wondering if there is a Spamdyke
specific log I can watch or is it apparent through the

The normal messages from spamdyke go to the smtp file, as you've seen.
# qmlog -f smtp
Or if you want to see only the spamdyke messages:
# qmlog -g spamdyke -f smtp
spamdyke has a nice detailed logging feature, but I won't go into detail
on that here. Just be aware that it's there when you need it. It's very
slick.
I do see a lot more of grey-listing and denials that I don't remember
seeing before, but it seems to have quieted the smtp logs. Is that normal?
>> Yes, it is normal.
I do remember seeing something (here on the list) about Spamdyke
reducing the load on the server by keeping things blocked at the source,
but I'm not sure what I should be looking for yet. Though, my client
with the worst spam troubles does suddenly seem to have a siginificant
reduction in traffic, and no spam yet.
>> I bet you will start loving it. Spamdyke will reduce 80% of Spam at
Source Level and you will find tremendous increase in your server
performance as Clam AV and SpamAssassin have to scan remaining 20% of mails.
