[SAtalk] Enable localized rule descriptions

2004-01-20 Thread Christopher Kunz
Hi, just a quick question: How do I enable localized rule descriptions? There's a lot of german rule descriptions in the stock SA distribution, but they're not used on my (german) mail server setup. Do I miss a point? --ck --- The SF.Net em

[SAtalk] Bizarre spam

2004-01-06 Thread Christopher Kunz
Hi, I received this here just some minutes ago. It went to a role account and through a ticketing system so there's no usable headers (it wasn't scanned by SA either), but the content speaks for itself... Looks like pure bayes poison. Did anyone else receive this and can tell me if it's correc

[SAtalk] False Negatives increasing in number?

2003-12-08 Thread Christopher Kunz
Hey, has anyone else seen false negatives increase in number over the last weeks? Although I think I have a pretty well-fed bayes database, I still get about one to three false negatives a day. This wouldn't normally interest me, but those mails are pretty dumb spam that _should_ be caught. Th

[SAtalk] Multi-user SpamAssassin setup on vpopmail

Hey there, since yesterday, I'm a happy SpamAssassin user (thanks to Sascha Schumann, who might even read this list, too) on my VPopMail setup. I'm now investigating the possibility of setting SA as the default spam blocking tool for all our domain customers. Unfortunately, vpopmail uses virtual
