Spamd is a fake sendmail(8)-like daemon which rejects false mail. It is 
designed to be very efficient so that it does not slow down the receiving
machine.

spamd considers sending hosts to be of three types:

 blacklisted hosts are redirected to spamd and tarpitted i.e. they are 
 communicated with very slowly to consume the sender's resources. Mail is
 rejected with either a 450 or 550 error message. A blacklisted host will not
 be allowed to talk to a real mail server.

 whitelisted hosts do not talk to spamd. Their connections are instead sent to
 a real mail server, such as sendmail(8).

 greylisted hosts are redirected to spamd, but spamd has not yet decided if
 they are likely spammers. They are given a temporary failure message by spamd
 when they try to deliver mail.

  Affects: users of mail/spamd

  Author: delphij@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    spamd now installs a rcNG script for starting the OpenBSD pf spamd daemon.
    To enable that at boot time, add the following into /etc/rc.conf[.local]:
  
    pfspamd_enable="YES"

Give up maintainership because of "inactive" caused by unfair

think I can still take care for this port anymore.

New port: mail/spamd - Trapit in cooperation with security/pf

        A Trapit is a fake SMTP server that tries to waste as much resources
        of a spam-relay as possible - without delivering any mail.

        Implemented for pf, but might work with other ip filters as well.
        mail/relaydb is a fine tool to utilize spamd.
