Actually, since I asked the original question, I'd like to clarify what I
think the main point is: "The lack of clear and concise documentation
about anti-spam/security options for the novice and/or average qmail
user."
I'm encouraged by the discussion that took place in this thread, but it
will obviously only benefit the folks who happen to be reading the list at
this time, or the folks who happen to find the discussion in an archive
search.
I still think it would be very useful to document the following on the
Qmail site:
1) All of the known issues (philosophical, religious, technical) of
anti-spam options; you've covered most of these in the discussion
2) All of the known solutions for qmail users (including the various
combinations of mailer, filter, and third party setups)
3) Detailed HOWTOs for setting up at least a few of these.
The last seems most relevant and pressing; even after all of this, I still
have no good leads on how to implement any sort of DNS checks for
enveolopes/From addresses.
I would be happy to make an attempt at this documentation, as long as
folks agree that it would be useful, and would be willing to provide
feedback on what I come up with.
