  Do you have anything technical and/or interesting to say?  If you don't,

 Yes - I have discussed two technical topics:
 - ergonomy (determines how easy it's to use the product)

No. You pontificated on your personal expectations of your experience
with the website. You failed to read the relevant documentation. How,
exactly does one discuss a technical topic without reading the docs?

 - fundraising system (determines how well the project can be financially
   secured)

Fund-raising is NOT technical, it is administrative. Had you bothered to
peruse the archives, you would have learned that:
1. This topic has been discussed ad nauseum.
2. This topic is not open for discussion.

Re: Question regarding mailserver setup

 Im using postfix,amavisd,clamav,spamassassin on a OpenBSD 3.9 server.
 The setup works great. The problem I have is that I would
 like to use Razor or Pyzor. I tried and installed razor but it
 doesnt seem to work very well. On another Linux server I have
 Pyzor and it catches almost all spam I get.
 
 What is the best anti-spam solution to use for OpenBSD?

Allow me to compare/contrast my anti-spam solution of 2 months ago with
my present solution.

Two months ago:
OS: OpenBSD 3.9
MTA: sendmail
AV: None
Server anti-spam: None
Client anti-spam: spamassassin with bayes; no network tests
Average total spam per day: 100
Average spam in INBOX per day: 20

Present:
OS: OpenBSD 3.9
MTA: sendmail
AV: None
Server anti-spam: spamd in greylisting mode
Client anti-spam: spamassassin with bayes; network tests enabled
Average total spam per day: 0.17
Average spam in INBOX per day: 0.02

Summary:
I used to have to download 6000 spam messages every 2 months; now I
download 10. I used to have 1200 spam messages in my INBOX; now I have
but 1. This is just for my account.

Have a great day!

 i hope this list is the right one for my question .
 
 i look for an funktion to limit the login by name AND ip range.
 
 example.
 
 root login ALLOW from www.xxx.yyy.zzz 
 deny from all
 
 myname login ALLOW from all 
 deny from www.xxx.yyy.zzz

The OpenBSD sshd is compiled with libwrap support.
Please see:

man 5 hosts.allow
man 5 hosts.deny

 Hello,
 
 version: 3.8
 architecture: i386
 
 I have seen that /etc cannot be located on a separated partition.
 Why can it be not on an extra partition?

Just curious, but why would want /etc on a separate partition?

Have a great day!
