Hi,

I’m new to policyd, but want to setup a mailserver, where I can limit the number of mails sent per month.

Installed policyd v2.1 just fine, got the web interface working well. My question is, what is a policy and what is an ACL and how are they connected/related? Someone should draw it down J

I see, that I can setup Policies ( and policy members ) and Groups, but I don’t see where they connect to each other. What are the relations?

Moreover, I can create an Access Control which I can link to a policy. What is it good for? Is this just a general mostly yes/no setup?

What’s the difference between Quotas and Accounting?

To accomplish my goal, should I setup a ’blank’ policy and create an ’Accounting’ and that’s it?


The documentation on the site gives an explanation of the various modules including a brief configuration description.

Did you check this out?



You clearly did not read the documentation.

Policies:
http://policyd.org/content/policies-configuration
Each and every policy element is explained.

Access control:
http://policyd.org/content/accesscontrol
First paragraph "Access control refers to plain and simple access control you can perform on email, this includes holding, rejecting, discarding (dropping), filtering or redirecting."

Accounting:
http://policyd.org/content/accounting
First paragraph "This module supports message count and message cumulative size over a fixed period of time."

Quotas:
http://policyd.org/content/quotas
First paragraph "This module supports message count and message cumulative size over a user defined period of time."
At the bottom of this page there is an example of how the counters are used.
