Hello. I just installed SpamAssasin for the first time and have installed the Spamass-Milter with Sendmail 8.12.2. All seems to be working:
415 ? S 0:00 sendmail: accepting connections 427 ? S 0:00 sendmail: Queue runner@00:15:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue 460 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamass-milter local:/var/run/spam-filter/spamass.sock 468 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamass-milter local:/var/run/spam-filter/spamass.sock 469 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamass-milter local:/var/run/spam-filter/spamass.sock 887 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/spamd -a -u smadmin -s local2 -F 0 -d My question is - is SpammAssassin ready "out of the box" to differentiate between spam and non-spam "99.94%" of the cases or do I need customized rules. The reason I ask is because I sent myself obvious spam (free mortgage quote) and could only get a 3.6 hit rate. Also is the reference to /etc/spamassassin.cf in the "Welcome to SpamAssassin" old and has been replaced by /etc/mail/spamassassin/* or should I have them both? And one more - I want to use SpamAssassin only with site-wide configuration. Should I run spamd with the -x switch to turn off per-user config files or do I need the per-user config files for the user that sendmail runs as? Do the white lists get written site-wide or written to the sendmail RUN_AS_USER user? Sorry about the newbie questions ... thanks, Mike _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
