2:14 PM - (no subject)

Can't remember if i posted on this the other day but i have greylisting setup on the mail server now. So when some asshole spammer sends mail they usually won't retry if something bounces. Well I have a 5 minute wait setup before my mail server accepts email. Its not up to spec but its supposed to drop spam a LOT. We'll see. Considering i cleared the spam box yesterday and i only have 5 new spam in my mail client i'd say its working great so far. It will slow down the bsd box further though for et i think. There will be more connections.

So my mail setup is this:

greylist <= rbl check <= antivirus check (clam) <= sendmail <= procmail <= spam assasin checks <= delivery by procmail.
