Well, at the one side I wished it was easier sometimes, but at the other side I have to say that the more I dive into amavisd the more I love exactly the way it works. Maybe it is a big difference, if you also love programming, which I do. So at the end I look into amavisd and the RELEASE_NOTES and think everything is fine :-) Concerning MTA and amavisd I think this is not so easy, because if using Postfix, then it makes a difference, if you use smtpd_proxy_filter or content_filter. It is the fact that the cleanup process is called in first case after mail returns from amavisd, in second before _and_ after. And that has consequences in amavisd, too. Because I have to specify different forward_methods in amavisd. I see everything as a big routing plan. I do routing of mails for my intranet, for foreign remote networks and maybe trusted networks (also from remote). I do define policies for all these and have full control. The only thing that I miss is a complete documentation of basic configuration parameters. But I guess that makes a lot of work. I even wouldn't know how to do the documentation structure. The more content is added to the RELEASE_NOTES the more chance raises up that you miss reading things and come up with unnecessary questions on the list. Not sure about that. Ah, finallly forgot one thing concerning policy_banks: If it would be able to define a policy_bank that can be inherited in others that would be cool :-) Best wishes Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl _______________________________________________ AMaViS-user mailing list AMaViS-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/amavis-user Please visit http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/ regularly For administrativa requests please send email to rainer at openantivirus dot org
