Hi,
one week ago I installed spamassasin
within my qmail / qmail-scanner enviroment.
Spam filtering works, however spamassasin
uses my syslog facility, which is getting restarted
every night. After the restart every request
using "spamc" hangs, "spamc -c" works.
As a temporarily solution I rest
When I have spamassassin installed as a postfix filter, systemwide on my
mail server, does it ever look at per-user config files?
I can see that it doesn't create them, but I haven't been able to tell if
it's using them, or what their name should be.
I used the how-to paper from advosys to set u

We are still at v2.20, I am surprised that none of the "market-speak"
phrases triggered. There are several that should be in the 2.31 spam
phrases, maybe they are in the CVS?

I had a user report this spam as getting through, so I ran it through
spamassassin -t to see what it scored... it only picked up the CASHCASHCASH
rule ($$$ in the subject).
Looking at it, I saw there was a URL to an IP address, so I looked in the
spamassassin .cf files and saw this in 50_scores.

I think it only counts once. Since 4.125 < 6.1 makes it not spam.
Of course your total showed 0.9, as others noted, restarting spamd would
also be needed.

Are you running spamd? If so, did you restart it after you added the rule?

If the following is in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, why does the
following mail not get tagged?

required_hits 6.1

I'd like to invoke it as a sendmail milter to strip them before SA has a
chance to score them. I think it would be valuable in reducing false
positives. The real trick would be to get it to autolearn the format of the
trailer for each domain in a list.

Gabriel, the "take something from these stored messages and develop
rules for them" is the whole purpose of this list and the SA effort.
The argument is that machines cannot develop reliable heuristics, but a
dedicated team of developers/users using the open source model can.

In general the rules for SA are simple perl regexp format. You can also
create functions and make them a rule, but I've not done that myself yet.
You can add your rules to {HOME}/.spamassassin/user_prefs to add rules on

I just installed and turned up Mailscanner(w/ f-prot), after having run SA
for some time. I know from watching the list that several others here are
running both as well.
I current have both running separately. That is, I am not running SA from
Mailscanner, but separately from procmail.
