I don't know if this helps you with postfix -- I use sendmail -- but for what it's worth... I've been using Spamhaus and dnsbl.sorbs.net for a while and last month configured one of my mail servers to graylist incoming connections. Doing so has dropped the number of connections rejected by these blacklists from around 100 to 2 per day while the number for the server that doesn't graylist has remained constant. I plan to monitor for a bit longer but will probably stop dynamically checking the two RBL lists and just stick with graylisting. I do, though, use SpamHaus' D.R.O.P list (http://www.spamhaus.org/drop/drop.lasso) to drop traffic from known bad guys with iptables. George -- theall@tifaware.com Attachment:
