FairUCE - the Smart Email Proxy

Posted by michael on from the can't-hurt dept.

Jestrzcap writes "This just posted on Freshmeat: FairUCE (which stands for 'Fair use of Unsolicited Commercial Email') is an SMTP proxy, running between multiple instances of Postfix, that verifies email by attempting to verify the sender through lookups (a user customized challenge/response). It claims to be able to 'stop a vast majority of spam' without the need for content filters, and 'virtually eliminates spoofed addresses, phishing, and even many viruses with a few cached DNS look-ups and a couple of if/then statements'."

    I've got the understanding of a four year old
    I've got the piece of mind of a killer's soul
    I've got the rationale of a New York cop
    I've got the patience of a chopping block

    I've got the accumen of a seasoned pro
    I've got the legacy of a billion souls
    I've got the world down my back, but I don't seem to care
    I've got the comprehension of a world unaware

    Can't you troll like I do?

    Laid out on my back, I can't sleep 'cause I'm slumming
    Eyes in my teeth, I can't see 'cause I'm eating
    Head full of noise, I can't think 'cause it's crushing
    Back on my feet, like a freight train I'm cumming

    If/Then statements? I sure hope this proxy is not written in BASIC. There could be some serious speed issues.
