1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl

240 This could be done thru either the DCC (on a global basis, or for a
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook

241 specific single recipient). We prefer to do such blacklisting via the

carl
parents: 104

242 DNSBL milter config, since it can be done for a collection of recipient
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl

243 mail domains. The DCC approach has the feature that you can capture the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
244 entire message in the DCC log files. The DNSBL milter approach has the
1c7677042b78 move to autoconf/automake/docbook
carl
parents: 104
diff changeset
245 feature that the mail is rejected earlier (at RCPT TO time), and the
