Integration of policyd-weight

Integration of policyd-weight ( http://www.policyd-weight.org/ ) into postfix would be great.

The big advantig of policyd-weight is that arround 80% of the spam gets bounced even before delivery, so allot recources are safed on the local system.

The other big advantage is that the sender has now the problem with the mail he was not able to deliver (he get's a clear error message, why the mail was not accepted). With spamassassin the recipient has to deal with the spam which is not the best sollution.

Howdy Andreas,

I agree. We've been toying with several policy daemons in the past few weeks, with plans to integrate one into the core Virtualmin system. policyd-weight has a lot to recommend it. policyd is also promising, though not as powerful/flexible as policyd-weight (in general). I expect to roll it in within the next few weeks--Jamie and I need to settle on one, and add a bit of support to the installer and possibly a simple Webmin module for configuring the daemon.
