[AusNOG] Spam Filtering

Unless you outsource your email service, I don't recommend outsourcing 
your spam filtering.

Your system admins will have some ideas on using greylisting, RBLs and 
fail2ban, I recommend seriously entertaining the idea of an open source 
solution along those lines.

Retaining the marked emails may be a service you want to offer, however 
that removes the "reject all spam" modus operandi.

In my experience, after most of the good open source techniques are in 
play, it is the customers being phished for webmail and submission 
access that poses the major problem.
