[Mimedefang] Blocking DSK & Cable modem users.

[VonEssen, John]

I'm curious, what is the network overhead like when using dcc, razor, pyzor, and rbl's?
 
This is more directed to mail servers with very high utilization to begin with. (>2 msgs per second during the entire day)

	SA already includes dcc support.
	SA also includes pyzor and razor support.
	
	I use all three, razor, pyzor,dcc to as additional sa tests.
	
	Read about enabling it in the sa documentation.
