[SAtalk] Rules for word-jumble spam

2004-01-10 Thread Rich Wales
I came up with a set of rules which appear to catch the new strain of spam with a meaningless jumble of words in the body, while hope- fully not catching any legitimate mail. See below; comments welcome, and (naturally) everyone is free to use these rules if you want to. Regarding my body rule (_

Hi, If I configure SA to use mysql user preferences, does it allow for *any* configuration option to be overriden? For example, if I have skip_rbl_checks as 0 in local.cf (so RBL checks are ENABLED) can I then insert a skip_rbl_checks into mysql and set it to 1 to disable RBL for a particular use

My first thought would be to make sure that you're restarting spamd after making the changes. If you are, then make sure spamd is running as a user with access to where you put the rule (but if you went so far as to stick it in the global rules, that would seem to eliminate that). On Sat, 10 Jan
