problem is probably how you're running spamd ... Looks like qmail-scanner tries to connect using the default port (port not specified on command line of spamc). Make sure you're not specifing a port on spamd when you run it, or, edit the qmail-scanner configure script to run spamc with the right port option (around line 635 in the configure script for qmail-scanner 1.11)
Personally, I don't do site-wide spam scanning. I'm going to offer it as a service to my users (for free). Basically, they can "opt-in" to spam filtering. When I do filter their spam, I'm going to filter it to a Maildir/.SPAM folder that's only accessable through IMAP or Sqwebmail. I'm also expiring all messages in that folder after 72 hours. The idea is that if a piece of mail gets tagged as spam and it shouldn't (and they actually check their spam on a regular basis), they can move those messages into their inbox and retrieve them with their mail client. Now to hack Sqwebmail to allow them to whitelist messages accidentally tagged ... :-) Enough about anti-spam ... I guess this is the qmail-scanner list. :-) Charlie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Robert Leonard Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 10:14 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [Qmail-scanner-general]Qmail-Scanner and SpamAssassin... I'm sorry to mix the applications, but I've run out of ideas.. and thought maybe one of you had had a similiar problem.. I'm a newbie who is trying really hard to get this to work! :) I am using Daemontools and TCPServer... I have Qmail running, I have SpamAssassin installed and the Daemon Started, I have Qmail-scanner installed and running, but I can't seem to get the scanner to use SpamAssassin! When I run the SA samples through SA, they get flagged correctly, and when I run the samples for Qmail-Scanner, they get flagged correctly.... but the two together, don't seem to work! When I use the ./configure command from Qmail-Scanner I get an error stating.. "Something like SpamAssassin SpamC is present, but not working, - ignoring..." Any idea why this might be?? Any suggestions as to where I can look or what I can do to verify that all is well? Thanks! _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
