Are C/C++ versions planned in the future?
Not that I know. Perl seems fast enough for this job. It will not be faster when written in C. Also I don’t have the resources to port this to all platforms if written C. Perl is available everywhere. Q: How about other MTAs?A: For Exim there exists a Policyd-weight/Exim HowTo — thanks to Jochen Schalanda. Unfortunately, I only have one mailer, which is Postfix. If you can make it available, maintain and continuously verify policyd-weight for other MTAs please make it available to the public and I might link to you. It’s not required to be in Perl, but it would be preferred. Python is ok, too. Compiled languages are not favoured, unless you are willing to maintain multiple platforms 😉 Keep in mind that there must be the possibility to hand HELO, MAIL FROM and Client IP to the script at the SMTP RCPT stage! After DATA would be useless, you might as well use amavis & Co in this case, and the smtpd might queue it after the DATA stage, using up resources.
