Different filters for different domains

If you are an MX service provider and want to apply different content filters for different domains, you can configure ONE Postfix instance with multiple SMTP server IP addresses in master.cf. Each address provides a different content filter service.

/etc/postfix.
master.cf:
    # =================================================================
    # service     type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command
    #                   (yes)   (yes)   (yes)   (never) (100)
    # =================================================================
    # SMTP service for domains that are filtered with service1:dest1
    1.2.3.4:smtp  inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd
        -o 
content_filter=service1:dest1 
        -o 
receive_override_options=
no_address_mappings

    # SMTP service for domains that are filtered with service2:dest2
    1.2.3.5:smtp  inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd
        -o 
content_filter=service2:dest2
        -o 
receive_override_options=
no_address_mappings

After this, you can follow the same procedure as outlined in the "advanced" or "simple" content filtering examples above, except that you must not specify " content_filter" or " receive_override_options" in the main.cf file.

Set up MX records in the DNS that route each domain to the proper SMTP server instance.
