Description (last modified by strk)

On #postfix IRC channel they tell me "postscreen" is a newer approach to reduce spam and does the same as "postgrey" plus more: 

zilirc | btw don't mix postgrey with postscreen, they sort-of do the same thing 
zilirc | I strongly encourage people to use postscreen because it has more features
lunaphyte | indeed, traditional greylisting software is not really the way to go, these days.  use postscreen

Change History (3)

I should add that postscreen is included in the postfix package while postgrey is in a separate package.
