Anti-Spam Greylisting

@Dave Arrowsmith

 

You posts and your sites deliver a quite considerable hype on something that's been around 3+ years now.

 

Question: what makes your "Hermes" better than the other 150+ plain-whitepaper Greylisting implementations available everywhere? 

THAT would be a really useful information to all of us...

 

Thank you!

Mercury/32 v4.5 has an extremely good GreyListing Daemon built in as a standard feature - GreyWall, by Lukas Gebauer (who brought us SpamWall and ClamWall). It works very, very well.

Cheers!

Thanks for the reply David.

I find having 30-40 block lists configured in Mercury/32 has about the same effect as greylisting. <G>
