Happy New Year to all.

I’ve searched the list archive, and found some references to my problem, but no solutions, so here goes again (sorry for the long post, but I want to provide as much info. as necessary):

I recently upgraded to spamassassin 3.0.2 running on CentOS 3.3. I’m also running sendmail-8.12.11-4.RHEL3.1 and mailscanner-4.37.7-1. I’ve been using RulesDuJour since before the latest versions of the above software, and it worked fine. However, after upgrading to spamassassin 3.0.2, RulesDuJour now fails. Here’s some of the more salient output from running the script:

***WARNING***: spamassassin --lint failed.

<snip>

Lint output: config: SpamAssassin failed to parse line, skipping: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

config: SpamAssassin failed to parse line, skipping: <TITLE> Rate limiting in effect</TITLE>

config: SpamAssassin failed to parse line, skipping: </HEAD><BODY>

config: SpamAssassin failed to parse line, skipping: Your request could not be processed because you have exceeded the maximum request rate for the requested document. This is a temporary condition; you will be permitted to submit another request in a few hours.

config: SpamAssassin failed to parse line, skipping: <BR><BR>To avoid triggering the rate limiter in future, please make less frequent requests for this document. You should not request the same document more than once every 24 hours. Please also note that continuing to re-request the document while rate limiting is in effect will further increase the amount of time before the file becomes available to you again.

Check which files have the string "Rage limiting" in them.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] grep -l "Rate limiting" /usr/share/spamassassin/*

[EMAIL PROTECTED] grep -l "Rate limiting" /usr/share/spamassassin/RulesDuJour/*

Delete those files. In fact you can delete everything in /usr/share/spamassassin/RulesDuJour/ and it should rebuild itself.


Finally, you should not have RDJ pointing to /usr/share/spamassassin. The proper place for local configuration (local.cf) and local rulesets (rules_du_jour managed rulesets) is /etc/spamassassin or /etc/mail/spamassassin (or similar... based on OS conventions)


I’d really like to get RuulesDuJour working again. Can anybody help?

Thanks.

Dimitri

Hope this helps.
