Thanks! I really appreciate all the feedback. My blacklist is ever growing.. I run qmail, and I look at the queues every morning.. The biggest issue is that one of the domains hosted on my system used to have free webmail hosting via Everyone.net ... HUGE mistake! They obviously sell the email addresses. So, when this domain switched, they discontinued using Everyone.net's service. But, tons of spam pours in for these dead emails. ( It used to be more than 1000 messages a day, and there were only about 20 users of the free webmail ). I've written a few scripts that I use to police the mail queue. They key off of the X-Spam-Status header, rip the IP addresses out of the mail header, feed them into my Black list, and then drop the messages. Very very effective. I've now got the junk down to about 8 to 15 messages a day. This volume is very manageable.
Another question... If running spamd to scan the mail ( using qmail-scanner as the go between ), where is the config file that the spamd process uses? I can't for the life of me get anything to take that I put in the config files... I tried putting it in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf, I tried the spamd users home directory, I tried qmail's home directory... And still now luck... I've got it on the default threshold of 5, but I'd like for it to re-write the subject line of spam... This change just will not take effect. Any ideas? Michael J.
