This is what our "weekly" graph looks like. I try not to graph too much
detail, e.g. greylist=new and greylist=abuse are added up to "deferred".
This gives you a much better overview of what's actually going on.

Then use reject_unlisted_recipient before policyd.

In an ISP environment, it is not obvious to know all your legitimate smtp
clients...

Hi,
has anyone experienced bad interaction between greylisting and (by default)
low smtpd_hard_error_limit settings in postfix? Our smtpd_hard_error_limit
has always been pretty high so I can't tell from my own experience. But
with greylisting, clients get an error on each RCPT command initially

You have to run it just once. On any MTA, or the database

SPF is not intended to prevent spam, only to prevent forgery (though

SPF is nowhere near the feature scope of policyd. Try Google, it will turn
up quite some alternatives.

FYI: I imported a package for policyd in NetBSD's pkgsrc: mail/policyd.

(pkgsrc is a cross-platform package management system and is primarily
being used on NetBSD and DragonFly, but also supports Linux, Solaris,

I agree that duplication INSERT and UPDATE requests to multiple databases
is not policyd's job, this should be implemented in a MySQL replication
system

They could also fix their HELO strings, yet I can still block

Hi Cami,
I have a question about the auto-whitelisting algorithm; why is it
implemented in greylist.c and not in cleanup.c? The way it is done now
(synchronously) means an extra query ('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM triplet
WHERE _host='%s' AND _count > 0') for each policyd request, whereas this
overhead

Hi,
(first post here)
The output of the "stats" command is quite poorly aligned, I'm not sure
whether this is intentional. The following change makes it look a lot
better:

+++ mysql.c 2007-06-13 10:49:12.0 +0200
