Hmm, I know what I will be doing this weekend! :-) Thanks for the tip, I
like the look of it.

Do you mind elaborating a bit here? I don't see where clamd fits into the
picture. ClamAV is only a malware/virus checker, and clamd is a convenient
multithreading way to get to ClamAV instead of having to spawn a clamscan
process for every incoming email message. OK, it does identify some
phishing attempts, but that is as cute as it gets as far as I know. How do
you do your greylisting? I handle mine with either postgrey or policyd.
