I don't know how set in stone it it is that you use sendmail, but FWIW I use postfix with spamassassin as an inbound/outbound smtp relay (no local users except postmaster etc).
I mostly follow the guide at http://www.advosys.ca/papers/printable/postfix-filtering.html Not knocking sendmail because I've never used it but as a newbie I found the above fairly simple to follow. regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.

The server is a gateway for a number of different email domains. company1.com, company2.net, company3.org. I've got the three companies in /etc/mail/access and the forwarding/relaying is working fine. I can't get the forwarded messages to be piped through spamassassin and I'm not sure where to look. SpamAssassin correctly intercepts messages that are sent to or from users local to the RH9 server but does not process any messages for users where the server is a relay. Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to get the relay to pipe through the spamd? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
