=========================================================================== $NetBSD: MESSAGE,v 1.1.1.1 2010/10/27 12:26:37 gdt Exp $ Use of Public DCC Servers ------------------------- This package will by default query public servers; before running it read the documentation and terms of use at: http://www.rhyolite.com/dcc/#public-servers The essence is: Public DCC servers for anonymous DCC clients handling fewer than 100,000 mail messages per day are provided by people and organizations in the following list. The default contents of /var/dcc/map file point to these servers. Note well that it has been wrong to take and resell the bandwidth and, most important, human system administration work of the public DCC servers to third parties. Blunt words for that include theft and stealing. Vendors of "spam appliances" or services including DCC such as "managed email" must provide DCC servers of their own or contract for DCC services from others. They must also buy a license for the commercial version of the DCC software. (Note that these terms are similar but not identical to the license for the dcc software itself.) =========================================================================== =========================================================================== DCC Server (dccd) ----------------- Running an own DCC server is strongly recommended if your site handles more than 100k messages per day. It will decrease the load on public DCC servers and increase the responsiveness of your DCC clients. When doing so, cron-dccd should run at least once per day in order to remove old checksums from the database: ${PREFIX}/libexec/cron-dccd =========================================================================== =========================================================================== SpamAssassin DCC Module ----------------------- For a proper initialization of the SpamAssassin DCC module (DCC.pm), copy dcc-spamassassin.pre into the main SpamAssassin configuration directory and restart spamd: ${PREFIX}/share/examples/dcc/dcc-spamassassin.pre ===========================================================================
