I proccess about 2-3,000 inbound emails here |daily on a P-II/450. | |Things still to do: | |Add spamd to the startup configs so it is started when the |machine starts.

I have entered procmail recipies and as far as I |can tell the spam check seems to work. I run Postfix as my MTA |and I was kind of wondering if there is any reason to try and |make changes in Postfix config (i.e master.cf). I could add |that my mailserver handles less than 15 accounts and does not |handle large amount of mail. | |I have to admit that at the moment I dont have a good grip on |Spamassassin and how it works. For instance, how would I go |about getting a whitelist to work and also starting automatic |whitelist? Is this something I can do via a procmail or do I |have to invoke something in Postfix? | |I realize I am being a bit fuzzy here, but if anyone would |like to exchange a mails and some pointers I'd be very happy. | |Thomas | | | | |------------------------------------------------------- |This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek |Welcome to geek heaven. |http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ |Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] |https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk | | | | | |------------------------------------------------------- |This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek |Welcome to geek heaven. |http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ |Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] |https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk | ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
