Where did you get that idea ? spamc respects the user_prefs and local.cf files. The only issue might be if you want user based configuration and you are running spamc as mail or something but this should be configureable on the MTA.

Oh. The docs (which I don't have in front of me at the second), said, at the beginning of the part on spamc, something about user_prefs
and being disabled for security and speed. I must have read it wrong. I just ASSumed that it meant that the user_prefs files were disabled -
I didn't even test it. :(


Well I dont know what you are running, but with 80 users exim (www.exim.org)
and redhat 7.3 (www.redhat.com)
should have no problem running on a P2 450


The mail server I run now is RH9 running the version of sendmail that shipped with it. I've set up a celeron 800 box with 512MB that I picked up for a couple hundred bucks with RH9, qmail 1.03 and SA 2.54 (same version of SA I now use. I'm far from a fan of celeron cpus, but it's quicker than what I have now...)


With exim you can definitely use spamc and have user preferances. In fact the .forward files for exim are so advanced that you can call spamc from them for each user if you wanted to.


I tried using .forward files, but no-one without a shell account could get their mail. According to the logs, they didn't have a shell that was permitted to call programs. I got rid of the forward files thinking that that'd disable everything, but I'm using procmail, so the /home/user/ .procmailrc started kicking in and spamassin (or spamc) started working - shell or not :)

Thanks a lot for the suggestions!
