Postfix can consult an external policy daemon to decide whether to
white/blacklist email.

A daemon which could answer Postfix with an OK or REJECT based on a users
black or white lists in ingo would be a very useful addition to horde.

It would allow email to be rejected before it is accepted from a remote
smtp server (if you accept email you really should deliver). Or
alternatively mail could be accept from a source even if it is listed in
for example an rbl (false positives do happen).
