Of course, Postfix fixes everything from AIDS to global warming, it's the greatest MTA ever invented. <eyeroll>

Exactly the kind of thing I would expect from you. Haven't you worn out that Postfix drum your banging yet?
no but "That's why we all do our RBL checks in spamassassin" is plain wrong, *you are doing* not "we all" - most people except you try to get most spam blocked in a sensible way before it hits expensive content filters, so just stop talk about "we all" if you have no clue
the RBL checks in SA are fine and good, but only for addititional scoring comined with other rules to get messages rejected via milter which are not on enough RBLs to block them straight ahead

That's why we all do our RBL checks in spamassassin.Could you elaborate on this? I'm "new" to running a mail server (it's in test phase atm) as my only experience is with sendmail many years ago. I take it SA does RBL look-ups by default and there is no need to att RBL look-ups in postfix main.cf file?he should speek for himself and not for "us all" a sane MTA setup is using something like Postscreen with scoring and *you don't want* to scan and tag 90% of all mails which are on 5 or even 10 RBLs, frankly you won't waste a smtpd process at all when postscreen can kill them below the current month and scanning additional 200000 messages would waste ressources all day long Reject Postscreen: 205389 Reject Postfix: 18275 Reject Milter: 7052 Reject Temporary: 1888 Blacklist: 200032 Pregreet: 40171 Hangup: 74936 Protocol Error: 3479
