Are you using procmail? Set a rule that if the mail is sent by you, with a
header stating that themail was originated locally, do not use spamassassin.
Are you using postfix? Set postfix so that mail delivered locally uses a entry
like:
127.0.0.1:smtp ...
<external_ip>:smtp ...
-o content_filter=filter:
filter unix - n n - - pipe
flags=Rq user=pffilter argv=/home/pffilter/filter.sh -f ${sender} --
${recipient}
Create a user "pffilter" and put in "filter.sh":
/bin/cat | /usr/bin/spamc -f | /usr/sbin/sendmail -i "$@"
Set your spamassassin to run spamd, which is always a good idea.
That will separate incoming mail and outgoing (local) mail to be checked by
SA.
