I use postfix with mysql which forwards mail to a content filter ( amavisd-new ) which does the virus scanning and Spam detection. Using Spam assassin I have DCC, Razor, and Bayesian Learning. All mail is forwarded through unless its a virus --> onto Cyrus, then I have Sieve read the mail headers to filter all Spam into a junk folder. If Spam still comes through I just have all my customers forward the mail to report-spam@domain.tld <mailto:report-spam@domain.tld> . A cron job runs at 6am every morning to learn from these Spam emails and put them into the Bayesian database. I only use one RBL which is relays.ordb.org, I don't like RBL's really because they have some pretty idiotic polices not to mention they're so secretive. Spam really isn't a threat - its more annoying then anything else - some customers like to read through it sometimes - I cant stop them if they want to. Yet every two days, all mail that's in the junk folder is automatically purged. Regards, Patrick
