RE: [SAtalk] SpamAssassin and SendMail

[Chris Santerre]

Yeah that was the other way! Milter. I was going to do that. But again, wanted some of the cool features I could do with procmail down the line. I have also heard nothing but great things about the mimedefang method. So much that I thought about changing over, but eh, if it ain't broke......

 

Specific install docs are ALWAYS welcomed! Just make sure you add them to the wiki!! www.exit0.us

I use SA + SendMail + SpamAss-Milter on FreeBSD.

 

1. Install FreeBSD

 

2. Install SpamAssassin from the ports collection:

cd /usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin; make install clean;

 

3. Install SpamAss-Milter

cd /usr/ports/mail/spamass-milter/; make install clean;

 

I then follow the instructions in the activation.txt file in:

 

/usr/local/share/doc/spamass-milter/

 

It takes me about 30 minutes to get a new SA box up and running. I use them in front of Exchange and Domino servers I setup for people.

Thanks for all your help until now. I start to understand how Spamassassin
works. Could somebody give me some how-to of how make sendmail to work with
spamassassin, or tell where I can find this kind of how-to?

I am reading the documentation page of spamassassin site to learn how to
write rules to detect spam, can anyone give me more information about that,
where I can learn more?
