Re: SPAM to ezmlm mailing lists

I use qpsmtpd to block the garbage before it even gets to Qmail.  It has 
worked nicely since it was installed a couple years ago.  As proof now:

Messages in remote queue: 133

Before installing Qpsmtpd, my remote queue was in the 600 range, and that was 
while running MessageWall (abandoned by its author and problematic on 64-bit 
Linux).  I hate to imagine what an exposed Qmail queue would be on a system 
handling hundreds of email groups with the spammers hitting it.
