Hi all, I have a perfectly-working ISPConfig server on which I have tweaked SpamAssassin to use the openprotect.com rules and ClamAV to run as a daemon for better performance. I would like the best spam filtering with the lightest server load. Is it wise or logical to also add spam blocking to Postfix? I'm considering adding this to my current Postfix configuration: Code: # Add anti-spam features - 8-28-08 smtpd_helo_required = yes disable_vrfy_command = yes strict_rfc821_envelopes = yes invalid_hostname_reject_code = 554 multi_recipient_bounce_reject_code = 554 non_fqdn_reject_code = 554 relay_domains_reject_code = 554 unknown_address_reject_code = 554 unknown_client_reject_code = 554 unknown_hostname_reject_code = 554 unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 554 unknown_relay_recipient_reject_code = 554 unknown_sender_reject_code = 554 unknown_virtual_alias_reject_code = 554 unknown_virtual_mailbox_reject_code = 554 unverified_recipient_reject_code = 554 unverified_sender_reject_code = 554 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_invalid_hostname, reject_unknown_recipient_domain, reject_unauth_pipelining, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, reject_rbl_client multi.uribl.com, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org, reject_rbl_client dnsbl.njabl.org, reject_rbl_client whois.rfc-ignorant.org, reject_rbl_client combined.rbl.msrbl.net, permit
Yes, thats generally a good idea as it takes down the load from spamasasssin as about 60 - 80% of the spam will get filtered by these rules before it gets forwarded to spamassassin.
