Thanks muchly - to both you and everybody else that has helped. This appears to be working now.
However, when configuring SA I noticed a problem - is everyone aware that the MailAudit.patch is still required for SA1.5 but is not included in the archive? I had to nab it from the SA1.4 archive... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Justin Mason Sent: 16 January 2002 00:54 To: Ian Briggs Cc: Spam Assassin List Subject: [SAtalk] SpamAssassin and fetchmail Ian Briggs said: > I've almost got SA running, but I've hit a final stumbling block: how do I > make it work (preferably as a daemon) with a sendmail/fetchmail/pine > combination?

Ian (and Lee as well): that setup works very well, I use it here myself (although not with spamd). In fact, there's a bonus -- since you don't actually check the mail for spamminess until you load it using fetchmail, and since fetchmail will probably run at least minutes after everyone else has received it, you'll get great hit rates from Razor and the DNSBLs ;) 1. Basically, do a normal fetchmail setup on the server side -- ie a POP3 or IMAP mailbox. 2. Then in your ~/.forward, run procmail: "|/usr/bin/procmail || exit 75" 3. Add a ~/.procmailrc: :0fw | spamc :0e { EXITCODE=$? } :0: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes mail/junk 4. Make sure spamd is running! ;) and that's it. --j. _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
