How to configure FOO=-1.0 in X-Spam-Status ?

2015-11-12 Thread Christian Jaeger
Hi I'm seeing X-Spam-Status headers from some other installation come with =$x appended to the individual matches, which evidently helps figuring out why a mail is being classified the way it is. I've spent more than an hour on googling and rtfm but couldn't figure it out. Also, grep does not turn

I've noticed Haraka (and I've used software by Matt Sergeant before, AxKit and qpsmtpd). I'm using qpsmtpd as the SMTP daemon already (that's how you do spam filtering in a Qmail setup, and qmail is the original delivery backend for qpsmtpd), which has the same architecture as Haraka (single proces

I don't have any problems with Qmail. I can code when needed for the missing parts. The unsolved problems I have with my mail setup would not be solved by going with another MTA. I like and know Qmail's configuration, modularity and security track record. This way my time is spent learning how t

Hi I've implemented (or at least so I thought) Hashcash for my outgoing mail (in a Perl wrapper around qmail-remote that I already had to do DKIM), using the `hashcash` tool as provided by Debian, using the `-X` command-line option. This tool returns multi-line headers if the email address the
