Tom, | I was looking around for something that would work as an advanced | filter under postfix. I've had recommendations for amavisd and | found some "stuff" on spamproxyd. | | How is this related to SpamAssassin? spamproxyd and a lot of | people here have mentioned amavis so I'll guess this is a wealth | of information.
| It appears that amavisd, as it is currently available under debian | (0.3.?) it doesn't really say much about blocking spam, just virii. | Am I missing something? Major version changes? Yes. The amavis* brand that does spam checking by calling Mail::SpamAssassin Perl module is amavisd-new: http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/ The November version (20021116) is the one to chose, virus scanning code is optional there. Apply the patches from the web page, also to the Razor2 and SpamAssassin. You may start with the Debian experimental(iirc) distribution if you prefer, which is based on amavisd-new-20020517, to get you all the required external modules, than just replace files (/usr/local/sbin/)amavisd and (/etc/)amavisd.conf with the ones from the 20021116. | What I'm really after is being able to plug in SpamAssassin plus | some of my own perl into a spam filter like spamproxyd or amavis. I'm running our own incarnation of Bayesian classification here. It is good in telling something is NOT spam, so if it says CLEAN, I don't call SpamAssassin at all - cuts down CPU cost by 2/3 on the average! Although there is no special mechanism to fit in your own anti-spam code, just editing subroutine spam_scan() probably suffices.
