Re: [pfSense Support] spamd package
What I just come to think of... should I disable the rule of pfsense itself ? I have used pfSense for almost 2 months now, and have opened port 25 in the very beginning... might it be that this open port is still there, and that spamd also has an open port ? I think I have the sitation below, when installing spamd ? WAN --> port25 --> LAN 192.168.10.200 WAN --> port25 --> LOCALHOST --> LAN 192.168.10.200 However, when telnetting into port 25 (with or without spamd) I get the answer of my mailserver (very slow with spamd installed, but I guess that would be that option to disappoint a spammer :) ) Michel Servaes schreef: It still won't react...

Gary, Thanks for the suggestion. My client is a not-for-profit library. They own the hardware. I provide consulting services/labor. So, I believe that their usage is appropriate. I do not sale pre-configured appliances. Gary Buckmaster wrote: Vaughn, You should re-visit the spamhaus terms of service for their Zen service.

With pfsense 1.0.1 it seems that the external providers and whitelist are not working. GUI don't have also a place to put blacklists (?).
