That depends on your setup. Here, we basically use: - checks on HELO, SPF, RBL, etc -> 550 reject - checks on SA -> accept but mark as SPAM - greylisting for all that came until here So every mail gets greylisted the first time for a triple. The simplest solution for starting with greylisting is to let it run for 2 months in "dry mode", learning all triplets (ip,mail from/to) by using postfix's "warn_if_reject", and then remove that "warn_if_reject". As most legit e-mails (at least the most important ones) should have been sent within that 2 months, there's no delay for most "normal" e-mail. But as for Rob's way of doing things: Again this involves manual whitelists. It would be nice if there were automated things, as manual stuff tends to be error prone, outdated and not updated :-( mfg zmi -- // Michael Monnerie, Ing.BSc --- it-management Michael Monnerie // http://zmi.at Tel: 0660/4156531 Linux 2.6.11 // PGP Key: "lynx -source http://zmi.at/zmi2.asc | gpg --import" // Fingerprint: EB93 ED8A 1DCD BB6C F952 F7F4 3911 B933 7054 5879 // Keyserver: www.keyserver.net Key-ID: 0x70545879
