By "relay" I assume that you have roaming users? If so, the best approach (IMO) is to compile Postfix with SASL support. It's really easy to do. The advantage is that this will provide for SMTP authentication which will prevent an open relay. Pop-before-SMTP is the other option but I think that SASL is far more efficient. As for Spam Assassin, that's the last thing that you want to integrate. Depending upon how many users you have, I find that Postfix can run relatively spam free without the use of additional software. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
