RE: [SAtalk] SA integration with Outlook and Exchange server

Another good option is to setup a small qmail box as an inbound SMTP proxy. Use qmail-scanner to scan the incoming messages, then pass them off to the EX server. I've been doing this for over a year, and it has been working quite well. Darren -Original Message- From: AltGrendel [mailto:[

RE: [SAtalk] spamd "simply replaces" spamassassin? don't think so

Spamassassin itself doesn't do a thing, it just installs the Mail::SpamAssassin perl module, and leaves it up to the user to decide how to tie it into their mail system. The most common way for local users is via procmail, but that is by no means a standard. Darren -Original Message- Fro

This is an interesting one. If you look at the HTML source, you'll see a PGP signature in an all white font. Clearly this is an attack on SA and similar programs. Thankfully, they made the rest of the message spammy enough that it was still over the threshold by a wide margin. They also went to

I wish. In the last week, out of 4,816 messages, 2,744 (56%) were spam, and I've blocked a good number of the problem mailservers (*.colonize.com) at the firewall. Darren ___ It really doesn't save you that much processing time anyway, because the majority of your e

RE: [SAtalk] Using user_prefs and user setups of whitelists

Spamd most certainly does use individual user_prefs files, and will create them if they do not already exist. The wording of the readme would indicate to me that you cannot define custom rules inside a user_prefs file. I'm curious to know what the "security reasons" are for this though. Darren

RE: [SAtalk] running spamd properly for qmail-scanner

You need to generate a new qmail-scanner-queue.pl and specify verbose_spamassassin. It defaults to fast_spamassassin, which doesn't inject any headers. http://qmail-scanner.sourceforge.net/FAQ.php Darren -Original Message- From: Jeff Garvas [mailto:jeff@;lek.net] Sent: Wednesday, Octobe

RE: [SAtalk] How to generate $USER_HOME/.spamassassin

Have you looked at /var/log/maillog to see if it is having problems creating the config files? (you may need to run spamd in debug mode) The spamd user needs to be able to write to each user's home directory. Are you running spamd as root and letting it suid to each individual user, or are you s

I think you're missing the point. You can do the normal make install, then just choose which users' mail gets filtered. Having multiple installs of the SA program files is an administrative nightmare come time to upgrade. Darren -Original Message- From: Johnny L. Wales [mailto:johnny@;m

Did you update to 2.42 recently? There seems to be a design flaw in that version that auto-whitelists spammers. I had to clear my audo-whitelist.db this morning due to an excessive amount of spam getting through with large negative AWL adjustments. Darren -Original Message- From: Jason

RE: [SAtalk] Probably trivial & unimportant but driving me crazy

I've noticed this too. The version you are seeing first is being reported by qmail-scanner, the version you are seeing below is what SA is actually reporting. Apparently when you build the qmail-scanner-queue.pl file, it embeds the current SA version into the code. When you upgrade, this doesn'
