RE: Postfix Content Filter
Prasad, After going through the mail thread, following are my advices for you: 1. sendmail-jilter (http://sendmail-jilter.sourceforge.net/) works on mail filter protocol, since Postfix also supports mail filter protocol, so it works with Postfix. Use following settings in your postfix 'main.cf' for sendmail-jilter to work properly with your Postfix setup: #Milter support for smtpd mail smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:10028 milter_default_action = reject milter_protocol = 2 You need to launch your mail filter (using sendmail -jilter) to be running on local machine port 10028 (any number you please). 2. You can use subethasmtp (http://code.google.com/p/subethasmtp/), if you want to use a content filter for the tasks that you have mentioned. Use following settings in your postfix 'main.cf': content_filter = scan:localhost:10030 Keep in mind that if you want to re-inject the emails back to postfix, you need to do appropriate settings in your 'master.cf' (refer postfix documentation). As a general rule I put relatively less time consuming / lightweight tasks for mail filter while other tasks I put in the content filter.

Re: Postfix Content Filter
Prasad R: I checked in to the SendMail Milter APIs but postfix documentation said, its only used in Before Queue Content Filter and doesn't have access to the full content of the email. And I didn't find the SendMail Milter API Your reading is incorrect. The Milter has access to the full content when it is NOT used before an smtpd_proxy_filter. Wietse
Re: Postfix Content Filter
Thank you Wietse. This is the link I was reading: http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html and forth bullet from the bottom of the page. How can I configure the milter to get access to full content and use it after smtpd_proxy_filter? Any pointers on the documentation?

RE: Postfix Content Filter
Thank you Wieste. Sorry for the repetition but the python or the Java version of the jitler a good option? My use case is very basic so Java is much preferred for milter development if jitler framework work with the postfix.

Failover control of Postfix content-filter
Hi, I have a custom postfix content filter that listens to incoming mail messages via amavis(scanning mails for virus(clamAV) and spam(spamassassin) ), set up between postfix and my content filter. I want to put failover control for my custom content filter, Is it possible to do it via Postfix or amavis. Thanks in advance Ashish
