So it's now 2013... Any changes? Comments?
Last time I rebuilt my mail server I let my spam filtering configuration get very simple, it's now: 1. Postfix's internal sanity checks (eg, real hostname, real address, etc.) 2. A custom access list I wrote many years ago (essentially a DUL) 3. A set of access lists equivalent to SPF for major webmail domains 4. A few RBL's: Spamhaus Zen, and the Barracuda RBL (almost all are blocked by the first, very few by the latter) That combination results in almost a little spam as a full spamassassin setup used to, and has the benefit of rejecting everything at SMTP time, not elsewhere. The only maintenance required is some very occasional (~1/year) work to delete now obsolete entries from the custom access list
