Run SpamAssassin or similar as a milter from Postfix. One hint that may help is that on many lists there's a short list of keywords that allow you to whitelist content when they appear in a text/* part. Eg, on Python lists, almost no spam contains the word "python" (except perhaps in the greeting "Dear [email protected]"). SpamAssassin and similar filters allow you to add rules for this kind of thing. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
