I am watching the log file of a new 2.60 upgrade go past my log file
viewer and I'm seeing some messages get caught as spam because they are
from AOL. These are known accounts with my company and we have received

I wrote a short shell script that does the trick for me. It assumes that there is a

everything except the white or blacklist info, and a file local.cf.names that contains
all the whitelist and blacklist lines.

First, you will have to change the port spamd uses since only root
accounts can attach to port numbers < 1024.
Second, check the rights to ALL the spamassassin files. Spamd must be
able to read, and sometimes write to all the configs, databases, etc.
Third... Oh, forget it. Just run spamd as r
Use spamc/spamd. The actual spam filter (spamd) can reside on any host

Hi folks!
I was wondering if anyone could tell me
I was reading the docs and it wasn't real clear what messages needed to
be sent through the sa-learn process. Do I need only ham that was
marked as spam and spam that was not marked? If SA auto-learns, is
there any value in sending messages that were correctly scored back
through the process?

user that he is not talking to the right group of people.
Mike,

If you have a Linux firewall between your Exchange server and the
Internet, you could run SA on it.
That's what I do with my GroupWise system. I'd be surprised if
Exchange didn't have some kind of 3rd party hooks for virus scanning
which should work just as well for spam.

Hey, Joe.
I am doing almost the same thing, except I hand off the email to
GroupWise.
Rather than use Sendmail which has just had another major security hole
published, I use postfix. The configuration is much simpler and there
is a great paper on integrating postfix with SA. Now if I could jus
I do something a little different. I have a script called whitelist
that adds the domain or email to the local.cf file for me. The script
is called /usr/local/sbin/whitelist. I created a soft link from there
to /usr/local/sbin/blacklist so I can maintain a single file.
Here's the script. If

I have spamc and spamd running on the same box. Spamd only listens to

Why do we need to authenticate the user of spamc at all? Are we

through ours? A local user forging someth
Did you restart spamd?

Whatever your flavor of *nix uses to stop and restart the spamd

Ok. I have written a script to update the local.cf file a little more
automatically. (It adds a correctly formatted whitelist entry for me.)
I am using spamd rather than calling spamassassin from my postfix
