Thanks for you information.
Permit me to specify my situation...
I have SQL lookups going but I decided I want to remove them. I have
about a dozen domains being checked. I have the following pertinent
lines:
-----------------------
$mydomain = 'myhostdomain.com';
read_hash(\%local_domains, '/etc/postfix/relay_domains');
@lookup_sql_dsn = (
['DBI:mysql:database=spamassassin;host=127.0.0.1;port=3306', 'amavisd',
'password'] );
@storage_sql_dsn = @lookup_sql_dsn;
-----------------------
QUESTIONS:
1. What is the best way of specifying my domains? Is it like this:
@local_domains_maps = ( read_hash("$MYHOME/local_domains") );
2. In order to cease to use SQL lookups for my domains do I simply
remove the last 2 lines? An earlier tip on this list suggested I at
least keep SQL lookups for AWL & Bayes (no idea yet on how to implement
these two mechanisms).
3. How do I bypass all checks for specific recipients?
4. I based my current setup on a ready-made tutorial. Now I see that I
am missing a boatload of options listed in the provided amavisd.conf
file. Are the following settings really recommended by default? I am
using 2.3.3 and none of them are in my file:
a) @decoders
b) @score_sender_maps
c) $banned_filename_re
d) @keep_decoded_original_maps
e) @viruses_that_fake_sender_maps
For (a) I have lines that look related:
$file = 'file';
$arc = ['nomarch', 'arc'];
$gzip = 'gzip';
$bzip2 = 'bzip2';
$cpio = 'cpio';
$uncompress = ['uncompress', 'gzip -d', 'zcat'];
$lha = 'lha';
$unarj = 'unarj';
$unrar = 'unrar';
$zoo = 'zoo';
Thanks for your help.
Peter
