You're welcome. | I have set it all up as you outlined, and each email now has | the line 'Received: from mail by scgf.gmx.co.uk with spam-scanned (Exim | 3.33 #1 (Debian))' in the headers. Yep. This tells you that the message came to exim from a pipe (created by user 'mail') and $received_protocol was set to 'spam-scanned'. | I never get an 'X-Spam-Status:' header, though. Mmm, you should. | I did exactly what you said, and added the filter lines to my | .forward file. I commented out procmail, so am not using it at all | at the moment. all the mail is coming through, but nothing is being | blocked. Do I still need procmail to be running, ie. is your | configuration *on top of* the basic SA setup, or instead of? Instead of, I think. I don't use procmail at all and IIRC the "basic" configuration is to use a filter recipe in procmail. | I am using the latest Debian package of Spamassassin, 2.01-1. It looks | like the conf file in /etc/spamassassin is empty - should there be | anything there? Should I revert back to an older version of SA? I downloaded, but didn't install yet, the 2.01 package. I know the SA config files changed quite a bit so I'm waiting until I have time to work on it before I do the install (last night I had to work on my car instead). Since I didn't mention any part of the SA config files in my document I don't think the version is really relevant; but I think some of the command line options to spamc/spamd may have changed. | Many thanks for your help. Ok, as for not getting X-Spam-Status, take a (real) message in a file (call it "msg"). What does : $ cat msg | spamc -f | grep -i spam output? It should outupt the X-Spam headers and the SPAM: report (if there was one). -D -- "...the word HACK is used as a verb to indicate a massive amount of nerd-like effort." -Harley Hahn, A Student's Guide to Unix _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
