Hello List, Hello Noah - first of all: sorry for the format of this mail, but i found it the following mail in the archive of this list, so I cut 'n pasted it here, for those who missed the first part. ;-) -------------------------------Noah wrote:--------------------------- >List: spamassassin-talk >Subject: [SAtalk] SQL prefs, virtual users, and Bayes/AWL etc From: Noah Meyerhans <noahm () csail ! mit ! edu> >Date: 2003-10-28 15:13:03 >[Download message RAW] > >Hi all.

We have a mail relay (postfix, suse 8.2, spamassassin 2.55) that recieves mail for a domain, checks it and forwards it to an exchange server (I know - not my choice!). incoming Mail is handed from postfix to spamd - so there's no procmail-spamc running. We now have all the Global spamassassin config in the mysql database. But: like you, we want to have personal configurations for each emailadress (recipients) in the database without need for local users on the linux system. That proves to be a little tricky,... Like you said, we probably have to patch the sources of perl-spamassassin One thing we tested is a patch from ------------------- Subject: Advanced usage of SQL prefs From: Jonas Pasche <spamassassin <at> jonaspasche.de> http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.spam.spamassassin.general/28511/ -------------------------------------- which proved to be unsufficient for this means, because there are no usernames involved in our system (username is always spamfilter). For our setup it would be necessary to be able to select preferences for each recipient's email-adress. Do you have any suggestions? Have you succeeded in patching the sources? Thanks a lot in advance! -- Noah Meyerhans System Administrator MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory -------------------------------------
