Sorry to jump in here - The latest gook I received is below. The main message was marked as SPAM for other reasons, but this thread has gotten me thinking a bit. Rather than trying to build a rule to find obvious incorrect letter combinations, shouldn't we be able to get SA to recognize this as

OK, I'll settle for a bit of documentation on how SA calls razor. Anyone know which module calls razor, or have any details about how it's done? I don't mind fooling with it a bit... Thanks. Regards, Rich At 10:06 PM 7/22/03, Rich Duzenbury wrote: Hi all, I've been us

[SAtalk] Razor 2.34 / SA 2.55 bug?

2003-07-22 Thread Rich Duzenbury
Hi all, I've been using SA for some time with good results. I've recently upgraded SA to version 2.55 and razor to 2.34 Since doing so, it seems that there are _many_ fewer hits on the razor rule. So, I ran a little test using the test file included in the distro, an exact copy of which is l

Auto-bouncing spam also auto-bounces FPs, and you lose legitmate mail. Tag everything with SA, and no need to change addresses; simply route all tagged mail to a special folder, which you check every few days. You never lose any mail, and you get to retreive any FPs, and you don't get to see the

The sample spam in the distro is in Razor. cat sample-spam.txt | spamc One of the checks in the report should come back as RAZOR2 check, and it adds 3+ points to the score. At 12:12 PM 11/25/02, Steve Evans wrote: I know this has been asked a million times but I couldn't find it in the archives

Try running the sample spam in the distribution. cat sample-spam.txt | spamc A working spamassassin / razor finds sample spam in the razor database, the RAZOR2_CHECK rule shows up on the sample message over here when I run it. My question is -- at what point does SpamAssassin use Razor? Becaus

Steve, Nice idea, thank you. I hope you don't mind that I expanded upon it a bit. I still have some of the older format logfiles around, so I changed the whole thing to run as one perl script, and added code to check which logfile format. I also added a summary of who was getting the spam, a

Hi All: I've just downloaded and installed SA via CPAN. As ROOT, the test to see if it's working, namely, spamassassin -t < sample-spam.txt correctly identifies the spam. As any other 'regular' user, the same test doesn't identify the message as spam, but places a single line at the end of th
