Yes you need to add in quite a few extra rules I find.
www.rulesemporium.com/rules.html
is a good place to start.
Yes you are correct to put the local rules in that file (or directory).
Don't forget to restart spamd/Amavis/MailScanner/whatever-calls-SA in
order for the new rules to kick in.
Has anyone measured the difference in performance?
For example when running:
- 1 spamd server connecting to mysql on localhost (does it use tcp or
unix socket?).
- 1 spamd server connecting to mysql on a remote host.
- 2 spamd servers connecting to the same remote mysql host.
