“I have to admit that some of my anger with Spam is the
number of robo calls I received during the recent election…I mean
wow I started casting my votes against the ones that called…yep
the candidates that called me more than 6 times all got a vote
against them. Really it is all basically the same thing, people are
using you and your resources to get ahead…”“One of the things I like about Postfix is many options to deal
with Spam. Using a combination of configuration options I have made
huge inroads to meeting my goal of 0%. It was not really rocket
science but more of making some additional effort to deal with
several smaller issues. header checks is just one of the options
available. One of the reasons that header checks can be so
effective is that Postfix allows you to drop mail before you waste
server resources on it. Yes…that is very important when you
realize that between 70-95% of all mail you get is trashed. As a
mail server administrator and as a person who must purchase the
hardware for the server, that makes me frustrated because 70-95% of
my costs are based on Spam.”
