User Settable Mail Configuration

-Debian developers have a wide variety of loud and conflicting opinions -about what constitutes correct handling of their mail, making it impossible for -an admin to choose a single setup that fits all use cases. -

- -

-Instead, we invite you to configure your own spam handling. -

- -

-Some options available to you are: -

bATVToken (to be enabled before 1/1/2010, with any luck) BATV - private token for address rewriting. Useful in combatting bounce forgery, but - requires configuration on your own mail relay(s). -
emailForward Address to forward your mail to. Setting this and - then rejecting mail from d.o machines is less than helpful. -
mailCallout Whether or not to use Sender Address Verification. -
mailContentInspectionAction One of reject, markup, or blackhole. - Applies to checks done on the content of message bodies, such as spam and - virus checks. Reject is default, and will reject the mail if a match occurs. - Markup will add a header and then forward the mail to you anyway. Blackhole - will accept the mail and silently discard it. -
mailDefaultOptions (to be enabled before 1/1/2010, with any - luck) Whether to enable the 'normal' set of (fairly - minimal) SMTP time checks that DSA decide are appropriate. Defaults to true. -
mailGreylisting Whether to enable greylisting. -
mailRBL Set of RBLs to use. -
mailRHSBL Set of RHSBLs to use. -
mailWhitelist Sender envelopes to whitelist. -
mailDisableMessage Absolute last resort measure - will disable - incoming mail from all machines not part of the Debian host list (see - /var/lib/misc/thishost/debianhosts on any d.o machine). This makes it very - difficult for things like automated pings and mass mailings to all concerned - DDs about changes to happen, and is strongly discouraged. -
