Yes, I am running spamd. The process I use is: modify rule in .cf file spamassassin --lint -D service spamassassin restart (to restart daemon)
Thanks for the troubleshooting tip. This is JUST what I needed. However, I am confused as the test did hit it. =/ Thanks much. -----Original Message----- From: Matt Kettler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2005 12:09 PM To: Johnson, S Cc: users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: Re: Custom rules not hitting Johnson, S wrote: > Hello, > > I'm on SA version 3.0.2 > > Even to test, I set the score to 10 and sent a message with just > "penis size" in it and it was completely missed. > > All of the default rules are working fine. > > Can anyone see any issues with that rule or point me in a direction of > troubleshooting this? Thanks. > 1) do you use spamd? If so, did you restart it? (You MUST restart spamd as spamd only parses the default and site-config rules at startup time, not per-message) 2) create a test message that should hit, and run it through sa with full rules-run debugging enabled: spamassassin -D rulesrun=255 <test_message.txt 3) your test works for me, but I'm using 2.64 at the moment. 4) It is generally considered unusual to have rule names with lower case letters in them. I don't think this will keep your rules from working, but I do think you should consider renaming your rules. If nothing else, consider that all the standard rules use caps-only names, and any bug parsing rules with lower-case names would never be noticed by the developers. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Confidentiality Notice If the information in this electronic communication relates to an individual pupil, it is a confidential pupil record under Minnesota Law and may not be reviewed, distributed, or copied by any person other than the individual(s) to whom it is addressed.
