You probably want to check the mail queues?

Could you pls explain in more detail.

I'm building a mail server with webmail service running. I'll allow my friends using the server free of charge. I don't expect spam mails being sent out from the server resulting in the IP address blocked on Internet. For such a reason I'm searching for a way checking whether spam or junk mails are sent by them. If possible includes stopping spam and junk mails sent out from this server.

Ok.

You're asking the impossible or asking for things kind of sideways ...

You can check for possible spam inbound and outbound using something like ::: Official Home Page for MailScanner - Anti-Virus and Anti-Spam Filter :::

You can check if your IPs are being blocked by subscribing to a number of services, though the amount of info you'll be able to get will vary on how many IPs you control directly

If your mail server sends spam it will be blocked

That is a simple fact

I'm considering making some precaution. My IP is NOT blocked.

If I allow my friends using the server sending mails, I have no idea what they have sent which is out of my control. Therefore I'm searching for some solution which can check/sotp spam being sent out from my server. That is the object of my posting.
