Hi Mike, That is too much overhead just to be able to use Postfix.
To be honest one of the biggest factors for me wanting to move to Postfix over Qmail is the fact that Postfix allows sender-restrictions... such as rejecting MAIL FROM to auth login mismatch as well as sender-verification. Would be pretty cool if spamdyke could do this! Kind Regards, Mark -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael J.

Then you get both. You can also use virtual servers as the Spamdyke/Qmail "frontend". Remove SpamAssassin from the mix, and any old server should suffice as a "Filtering" server.
