I got completely frustrated chasing the stupid worm of the week thru what had essentially become a series of fast hacks, and I decided to rework my mail system from scratch.
Sendmail out, postfix in mimedefang out, amavisd-new in spamassassin, f-prot, and clam stayed the same. Unless the makeup of the worm spam changed radically during the course of today (Tuesday), the new configuration is passing FAR fewer false negatives. I don't keep the old spam and virii messages, so I can't quantify it, but my config settings are basically the same as they were, and my FNs are down from around 3 per hour to around .5 per hour. Bayes still isn't working - not enough ham and spam fed, this is just the standard (mostly, a few custom mods) rule set. YAHOO! (no, not the search engine) Mike- Mornings: Evolution in action. Only the grumpy will survive. ----------------------------------------------------- Please note - Due to the intense volume of spam, we have installed site-wide spam filters at catherders.com.
