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...

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.
