Hi,
I have a problem with the huge amount of messages being logged by
spamassassin. I have around 10 active e-mail users on the system, none
of whom have any u
log. Thus for each
single delivery the logging for all messages in the past half year (Oct
15 -> Apr x) is sent to syslog.
Please post the full contents of the spamfilter.sh, and examine the
contents of any temporary files that is it using.
Kind regards,
Tom

Hi KAM,
Thanks. I tried them both with the same results, several e-mail details, then
the summary:
61 Kbytes in 8 Requests.
They all look like valid e-mails.
Kind regards.
Jim.

Hi John,
That sounds like a good move. I don't have a lot of experience using tcpdump.
Could you help prevent me from fumbling around like a wit with it and let me
know what I need to do with it to identify the source of the spamd traffic?
Thanks.
Kind regards.
lease accept my apologies for breaking off this conversation at this stage.
Kind regards.
Jim.

Hi ap-ml,
This sounds interesting. Could you let me know where I should look for the
temporary files you mentioned?
I'm on the edges of my knowledge of e-mail and networking here :-)
Kind regards.

ick check. The messages cover the 6 minute period:
Apr 4 23:24:26 to 23:30:40
The text "info: spamd: processing message" appears in that 162,761
times.
Kind regards.

mail.* logs are rotated weekly. I'll change that so
they're rotated daily. That will certainly help, but I'm sure it would be good
for the disk and CPU if I can reduce the amount of data being logged.
Kind regards.

No, it's not. It's what we would call the glue. It's a content filter script

Hi Dave,
I used the following instructions to set up the system, but they weren't
followed verbatim because I already had some things in place.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the quick response.
The OS is Ubuntu 16.04.
I thought spamfilter was spamassassin.
Looking through my config files, the postfix master.cf file contains
the line:
flags=Rq user=spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamfilter.sh -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient}
Hi,
I have a problem with the huge amount of messages being logged by spamassassin.
I have around 10 active e-mail users on the system, none of whom have any
unusual e-mail usage. This is what I've seen in the last 2 hours:
$ date

$ ls -l /var/log/mail.log
-r
14 matches
