Description
spamdyke monitors incoming traffic, acting as a middleman between qmail and the remote server. It catches the sender and recipient addresses as they go by and logs them to syslog. If it sees something it doesn't like (e.g. a blacklisted sender), it cuts the connection, closes qmail and fakes the rest of the SMTP transaction with the remote server. qmail thinks the remote server disconnected normally. The remote server thinks qmail is rejecting the message. It's the best of both worlds.
spamdyke can optionally reject the connection if the remote server's reverse DNS entry does not exist, does not resolve, contains its IP address and either contains a prohibited keyword (like "dynamic") or ends in a country code; if the IP address, reverse DNS entry, or envelope sender is listed in a blacklist; or if data is sent before the SMTP greeting banner is displayed. spamdyke can also limit recipients per connection, greylist for some or all domains, and close connections that go idle or take too long.
Install
