Postgrey is a Postfix MTA policy server implementing Greylisting.
|
|
|
- Greylisting is related to Whitelisting and Blacklisting. What
|
|
|
- happen is that each time a given mailbox receives an email from
|
|
|
- an unknown contact (ip), that mail is rejected with a "try again
|
|
|
- later"-message. This, in the short run, means that all mail gets
|
|
|
- delayed atleast until the sender tries again - but this is where
|
|
|
- spam looses out! Most spam is not sent out using RFC compliant MTAs;
|
|
|
- the spamming software will not try again later.
|
|
|
+ Related to whitelists and blacklists, a greylist indicates those
|
|
|
+ emails (originating from unknown IPs) which are rejected with a
|
|
|
+ "try again later" message. The email in question will be delayed
|
|
|
+ until the sending MTA tries again, but this is where spam loses
|
|
|
+ out. Most spam is not sent out using RFC compliant MTAs, and so
|
|
|
+ the spamming software will not "try again later".
