Why are you not blocking with blacklists at the border, ie: MTA.

I'm not familiar with how to do that or if it can be done. Since SA offers this functionality, so did not even consider that. I'll look into it.

Given its 0 resources for your MTA, with anti spam checking on SA often using significant resources (depending on traffic/number of tests/rules etc), its best to stop it getting to SA in the first place.

SA also has this by-default list of domains that it never checks, for along time I have disagreed with this, we are the ones to decide who gets whitelisted not SA, not some paid third party, the option clear_uridnsbl_skip_domain  however prevents this, but then you have to locate and 0 all the general rulesets scores that are whitelists as well.


The configuration/usage of those lists causes me great frustration. Semi retirement and infrequent "tech stuff" may be partly to blame.
