|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>Important note: if you're running a high-traffic mail server, you'd better
|
|
setup a local DNS server to cache DNS queries, because free RBL services
|
|
like zen.spamhaus.org may improperly reply if your server exceed the
|
|
DNS query limit. Also, mail service higly relies on DNS queries, so a local
|
|
DNS server speeds up the mail flow.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<p>You can enable additional DNSBL services in Postfix to reduce spam. We use
|
|
<code>zen.spamhaus.org</code> for example below.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Open Postfix config file <code>/etc/postfix/main.cf</code> or
|
|
<code>/usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf</code> (on FreeBSD), append
|
|
<code>reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org</code> to parameter <code>smtpd_recipient_restrictions</code>.
|
|
Final setting looks like below:</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre><code>smtpd_recipient_restrictions = ..., reject_unauth_destination, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>It must be placed after <code>reject_unauth_destination</code>. You can add more DNSBL
|
|
services after <code>reject_unauth_destination</code>, and they will be queried in the
|
|
specified order.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Restart or reload Postfix service is required.</li>
|
|
</ul>
