I'm running SpamAssassin v2.31 on linux v7.2. I'm the only user on the system and use my .procmailrc to filter incoming mail through SpamAssassin. I have added some commands to my /home/<username>.spamassassin/user_prefs. So far it's working well.
I want to be able to forward emails which should get whitelisted to an email address as per the docs. I'm missing something fundamental as this is described in the man page. I don't understand exactly how to set up a mail alias and/or how to use a line such as the below from the man page. spamtrap1: ""| /path/to/spamassassin -r -w spamtrap1"" or in my case I guess something more like spam_whitelist: ""|/usr/bin/spamassassin -W"" Does this line get executed/run from the command line (shell prompt?) Does it go in /user/home/.spamassassin/user_prefs? Some other configuration file? Do I need to actually create this user on the machine? thanks for any clues, --Don ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: DEDICATED SERVERS only $89!
