Description Sönke Schwardt-Krummrich univentionstaff 2017-10-27 11:06:31 CEST
We should consider postscreen for integration in the postfix config:

The Postfix postscreen(8) daemon provides additional protection against mail server overload. One postscreen(8) process handles multiple inbound SMTP connections, and decides which clients may talk to a Postfix SMTP server process. By keeping spambots away, postscreen(8) leaves more SMTP server processes available for legitimate clients, and delays the onset of server overload conditions.
Comment 1 Sönke Schwardt-Krummrich univentionstaff 2017-10-27 14:54:51 CEST
Implemented in feature branch sschwardt/45607/422/postscreen

postscreen is not enabled by default since the benefit comes into effect on systems directly accessible from the internet.

Activate postscreen:
 ucr set mail/postfix/postscreen/enabled=yes
 systemctl restart postfix.service

Configuration is possible via UCRV mail/postfix/postscreen/.* or via additional options in /etc/postfix/main.cf.local

REOPEN: please add documentation for this new feature to the manual. Please mention the location of the temporary Postscreen cache (postscreen_cache_map): /var/lib/postfix/postscreen_cache.db, so that admins can delete it while testing.

REOPEN: missing advisory entry

OK: manual (http://jenkins.knut.univention.de:8080/view/Doku/job/UCS-4.2/job/UCS-4.2-3/job/HandbookUCS/lastBuild/artifact/webroot/)
OK. merge to 4.3
REOPEN: please add the required words to the dictionaries, so the error rate in the Jenkins manual job returns to its previous state.

Will be verified after fixing the dictionaries.
