Hi

There are two files for SPAM filtering as below and after modifying/adding, do we need to restart POSTFIX demon to take those changes into effect?

Configuration file - /etc/postfix/main.cf
header_checks = pcre:/etc/postfix/header_checks
body_checks = pcre:/etc/postfix/body_checks.pcre

Hi Zhang,

Thanks for the reply. I understand it is better that it is restarted and I can do that as there are few users.
