Hello guys, I'm doing some consulting services for a small hosting company and we're evaluating the use of spamdyke with out plesk-based Linux servers.
We host about 100 domains and spammers have been hitting us hard. After some work we were able to live with a spam hit of 100000+ incoming spam messages per day, as they were not affecting our business. Spamassassin was activated to limit the noise. Now, we're migrating one of our servers to a new machine and this time we need to address other issue: many of our clients have internal lists of customers e-mail addresses. Quite a few trigger daily emails to thousands of recipients. Our email server was listed a couple times on a number of spamming servers lists. So, we need to limit the number os recipients that our clients may send. I was looking for some clues on max-recipients usage on this list archives and have a few doubts: - it seems to be a feature aimed primarily to limit the number of _incoming_ messages, not _outgoing_ emails, right? - does it work with _authenticated_ clients that use our email server as relay from MUA software as Outlook and Eudora or by authenticating, users will bypass all filters? - will max-recipients settings affect the mailing lists processing? I've read the documentation about the "filter-level" option, but it isn't clear for me if setting it to "normal" will have the desired effect... Any ideas on this? Thanks in advance.
