Yes, so basically to resume the anti-spam system (e.g. SpamAssassin) it simply gives you a boolean answer: true (SPAM) or false (HAM). Now based on that answer I would like to use this SPAM/HAM answer from SpamAssassin to deny the relaying of that mail to it's destination (the destination being another MX mail server on the internet). > Then, one way you have, is to use Sieve with Dovecot.

But before doing that I want to be sure that mail is not Spam. -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to misc@opensmtpd.org To unsubscribe, send a mail to: misc+unsubscr...@opensmtpd.org

Simple way of blocking relay of spam on submission port 587
Hello, I am using OpenSMTPD for authenticated people with their mail client to send mail on port 587 (typical mail submission scenario) and am trying to find out a simple way to block these relayed mails in case they are detected as spam by SpamAssassin. For that purpose I evaluated spampd but in the man page of spampd it's clearly stated: "Note that spampd does not do anything other than check for spam, so it is not suitable as an anti-relay system." So I was wondering if there is another way to block potential spam mails which would be relayed by my users? I don't want them to be tagged I just really want them to be blocked full stop.
