Can you explain why you'd use milter over spamassassin? Genuinely
interested as we could certainly get better spam filtering...
just becaus eit is the only way where you can *block and reject* spam instead still deliver it with a special subject
http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html
without a milter your only choices are:
- deliver crap
- get a backscatter and get blacklisted
- drop messages while pretend you accepted them and go to jail
"-r 6" = reject with a score of 6 and bigger spamass-milter -p /run/spamass-milter/spamass-milter.sock -g sa-milt -r 6
Another alternative to milters is the postfix policy daemons. The best one to use for block and reject is policyd-weight. found here http://www.policyd-weight.org/
This gives spam a weight based on a number of factors. I setup to do this score <0 accept immediately score <10 greylist then verify sender, then spf, then spamassassin if not spf pass. score >10 reject immediately
