I'm not sure if this is done with Postfix, but I would like to see if its possible (when using dovecot) to have postfix deliver mail from blocked hosts to a junk/spam folder.

@oktayaa the postscreen thing looks interesting. Is their an example setup to look at?

@tuaris I believe I used this as a reference. It also has a link to the documentation you need at the top.

cbl.abuseat.org should be removed. If it still works at all, it's a subset of zen.spamhaus.org, so it's a wasteful DNS lookup. See https://www.abuseat.org/cutover.html for details.

Also, for postscren documentation, see http://www.postfix.org/POSTSCREEN_README.html (or http://www.postfix.org/POSTSCREEN_3_5_README.html for older versions).
