freebsd not only ships WITHOUT anti-relay rules, but also sets sendmail -bd as default. Not exactly anti-spam tactics. -jrp out of the ten billion anti-spam sendmail rulesets, could we at least find one ruleset to at least deny off-site relaying? I mean its the least we could do since sendmail is enabled by default [which is, in my book, not such a good idea.] dkelly@hiwaay.net writes: > I can't tell if my recent cvsup of RELENG_2_2 has the well known > anti-spam anti-forwarding rules built into sendmail.cf by default. > Checked /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf/freebsd.cf and > didn't see anything unusual, but I'm no sendmail expert. > > Is this something that is tried and true enough to ship as a default > configuration for FreeBSD sendmail?
