I just came across what I think is a possible hole in spamdyke's
configuration.

I've been reading through the documentation regarding TLS, and it
appears that with no "tls-level" option specified, if a spammer were
to use TLS (advertised by qmail), spamdyke would be unable to use
several of its filters because the data is encrypted passing through
spamdyke to qmail-smtp.
[...]
I don't think so.
 From http://www.spamdyke.org/documentation/README.html
,,If |tls-level| is not given, spamdyke will use a value of |smtp|.''

Elsewhere on the same page:

"First, with no TLS options given, spamdyke will identify a TLS
conversation and simply pass the data back and forth between qmail and the
remote client."

Can you say Ambiguous?

Thanks, Kent. That's what I read, but didn't notice the other reference.

Since the tls-certificate-file is specified in the QMT configuration, I expect that "no TLS options given" does not apply. (I think I read this as meaning "no tls-level option given").

I think that having only the tls-certificate-file option specified, that tls-level=smtp is in effect whether it's specified or not.

Sam, will you please confirm this? (I think Sam's on this list)
