I am trying to look at getting spamassassin 3.0 from the backport for Debian to work with maildrop and I am getting a bit confused. First I can't seem to get maildrop to read it's config file in /etc/maildroprc. I added the logfile "/var/log/maildrop" directive and created the logfile with the same permissions as the rest of the mail logs, but it won't write in it. Maildrop is working and set to be the mailbox_command in the postfix mail.cf.
I guess I need to get the maildroprc file working before any directives to use spamassassin in an xfilter would be helpful. Anyone have an idea why I can't get this file to be used and how best to set up spamassassin to mark up messages and place them in the users Spam folder in their maildir?
I currently have copied this from searching the mail archives: ----------------------------------------------------------------- cat /etc/maildroprc logfile "/var/log/maildrop" VERBOSE="5" log "========"
xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc -f"
if ( /^X-Spam-Flag: YES/ \ # Watch out for header line added by Spamassassin.)
{
log "------------------------------------------------------------- Spam
general. "
to "Maildir/.Spam"
#DELTAG=1
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the help.
