Aside from realtime blacklists based on IP (rbl), what else could you do? |
| 13 |
I can't think of anything else that doesn't require the message body, |
| 14 |
which means a full smtp session to get the message body. The rbl stuff |
| 15 |
comes with qmail (well actually, it comes with ucspi-tcp along with |
| 16 |
tcpserver, which you should already have). The rest you can do with |
| 17 |
qmail-scanner. |
