It all revolves around how you've implemented SA. While it is possible to use it in a milter style fashion, the more common way is to run spamd, and call spamc from procmail, at delivery time. Noting that if your local PCs have been compromised, and are now part of a botnet, they're not going to send their spam out through your mail server, anyhow, it might be simpler to run via procmail at delivery, and bypass scanning outbound mail. -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org To be notified of updates to the web site, visit: https://www.bubbanfriends.org/mailman/listinfo/site-update or send a blank email message to: site-update-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
