Summary : Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse, anti-spam tool
|
Description :
Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse or DCC is a cooperative, distributed system intended to detect \"bulk\" mail or mail sent to many people. It allows individuals receiving a single mail message to determine that many other people have been sent essentially identical copies of the message and so reject the message. It can identify some unsolicited bulk mail using \"spam traps\" and other detectors, but that is not its focus.
The DCC can be viewed as a tool for end users to enforce their right to \"opt-in\" to streams of bulk mail by refusing all bulk mail except from sources in a \"white list.\" White lists are generally the responsibility of DCC clients, since only they know which bulk mail they solicited.
NB to use DCC to reject SPAM you need to configure /usr/share/dcc/dcc_conf and either use procmail or sendmail to feed the messages to DCC
