Stephane, We have over 10,000 active mailboxes on our mail server, and we successfully implemented SpamAssassin + Amavis on it. We run Postfix on FreeBSD. The server is a DELL dual xeon 1.8Ghz, 2Gb RAM, 130Gb SCSI RAID5.Amavis runs as a content filter (all email gets scanned by it). SpamAssassin runs via the MDA, in the final delivery. We run the spamd/spamc setup. We also run header/body checks via postfix for common spam addresses/phrases this rejects the message in the MTA stage, rather than the MDA stage. Customers get the choice of Spam On/Off and we'll add addresses to the global whitelists if a customer requests and it fits the criteria. they do not currently have per user options. The server sends averages of 750,000 emails, and receives 1,200,000 emails weekly. Of this 1500 are viruses, and 170,000 are spam. The server has peaked at receiving 800 messages per minute without any major issues, (very high load average, but still coped with the load). The same server does ALL mail processes, there is not a seperate gateway. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephane" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 4:13 AM Subject: [SAtalk] has a large company implemented spamassassin ?Hello, Our company has got a large number of mailboxes (more than 20000) and islooking at implementing spamassassin for its spam filtering. Of course with this number of email addresses the servers receiving the internet email will be big dual or quad processors boxes with lots or memory (planned OS will be SuSE Linux Enterprise 8).I would be interested in knowing if there is a similar large company (>5000 mailboxes) having successfully implemented spamassassin in order to share the experience -- we had a successful pilot running and would like to go live in one month.Regards, Stephane ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte are you planning your Web Server Security?
