As for using "an external dynamically modified list with SA", here's what I do - my whitelist is just an SA ruleset called whitelist.cf (for instance). When I modify it, I copy it to the servers that run SA, and do an "rcspamd reload". (of course this is all automated). I'd be interesting in learning more details about that ;-)
Its a ridiculously simple rule and comes from a list of recipes I found on the 'Net

Actually there's a short-form for all that, but this illustrates clearly
Key is a simple grep against a list of patterns.
On the machine this originally ran on, formail and grep were small and fast and used already cached libraries. grep is amazingly fast. Compared to starting perl and loading script and having spamassassin precompile...
But what is the point Anton? Does it matter if you receive each email 1 or 2 seconds faster? You're optimizing for no reason at all, IMHO. Maybe it's a hobby, fair enough, but that's not a selling point. Given that we already have perl and DNS queries in the mix, performance has already been heavily compromised and is therefore irrelevant, IMHO.
The reality is that it may be years before I come back to do 'maintenance' and the least bit of obscurity makes life too difficult.
That's precisely my argument for keeping it all in SA. Apply the KISS principle. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (17.2°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
