Can we configure it, > install plugins etc We're currently hosting Mailman and Postfix ourselves. postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.i686 mailman-2.1.12-17.el6.i686 My biggest concern with a spam filter is that it is another service oVirt Infra has to own and maintain. Is there someone interested in helping with ongoing support for it? One reason this matters is that eventually we could have the option of using OpenShift for Mailman, and I don't know if we could use the same spam filter setup. Actually, we could if we had our MTA on its own host doing relay for Mailman (currently OpenShift doesn't support running an MTA/relay as they are EC2 based, and EC2 mail relays get blacklisted.) But that means maintaining our own MTA and spam filter on one of our hosted VMs indefinitely. Are we prepared to do that? Part of my questioning is that I haven't run a spam filter service before, so it's Great Black Hole of Knowledge to me right now.
