For a few months now, I've been using a product called TrafficControl from MailChannels. I know the guys who wrote it and they're a pretty solid bunch. It works so well for me, that SA and DSPAM catch less than one spam a day per account now. As a result, I've turned them off here. I thought you guys might want to know about this too :) http://www.mailchannels.com/ Before release they were going to charge or the product, but it's now free for non-commercial users, and free for any use if you get less than 10k connections a day. Let me know if you try it and what you think of it. TC is an invisible proxy. It listens on port 25 and silently forwards the connection on to your MTA, doing checks on the traffic in the process. One interesting thing I found, was that after I changed my DNS to point my MX to a new IP that I gave TC, I still got LOTS of connections (100's per day) to my old IP. All spammers who cached my DNS. If you try it, let me know what you think. -- Avleen Vig Systems Administrator Personal: www.silverwraith.com
