Hi everyone,
I'm a new (~5 days) qpsmtpd user and I'm pretty pleased. So far I've
got SPF, greylisting, early-talker, require_resolvable_fromhost and
check_spamhelo working pretty well... My spam load is now drastically
reduced.
Looking at what is still getting thru, I was thinking that a plugin that
did some generic RFC compliance checks of the HELO/EHLO domain/IP, and
perhaps optional DNS/Reverse DNS lookups to confirm they weren't lying
would be useful (though could prevent some poorly configured mailers
from getting thru I suppose).
Does anyone know of such a plugin, or should I start coding?
BTW, does anyone know why AOL.com is publishing SPF records with NEUTRAL
for the internet at large? Seems stupid, and I'm tempted to hack it
(the plugin/perl module) up to treat that as a soft-fail, but so far I
haven't had that many spams come in pretending to be mail-from aol.com.
Thanks,
Robert
