Anti Badmail for Qmail: Anyone tried it on SME?
« on: September 14, 2005, 09:49:06 PM »
Antibadmail rejects all bad mails seeing the bogus parameters in SMTP session. Doing so reduces the load of mail servers because antibadmail program check only three SMTP parameters(HELO, MAIL-FROM and RCPT-TO) and smtp-client's DNS-record settings.

Because antibadamail' is a wrapper, it can work not only with qmail, but also with sendmail, postfix and any other RFC2821 compliances.

You should have a look at 7.0beta as many of the tests above, and many more (including virus and spam scanning), are already configured in qpsmtpd.

Gordon, that is not an option as I want to know how to install and use the antibadmail wrapper on  productionservers (6.01-01).

No worries. But the more people we get testing 7.0beta, the faster it will get to a final release.
