Hi! I'm new to this list, this is my first post. I'm planning to set up a personal spam filtering gateway. It should collect mail from several remote POP servers, scan them through amavis and make them available through an IMAP server. I managed to figure out how to configure every piece of software involved, there is only one step that causes a bit of trouble. In fact there is no need for any MTA in this setup. Amavis will get the mail from fetchmail using plain SMTP and should pass it to dovecot. I planned that Amavis would pass the mail on to procmail which stores it in the MailDir format for dovecot to read it. The problem is that Amavis doesn't support to relay directly to procmail or any other MDA. That would mean that I have to use an MTA for the sole purpose of relaying mail between Amavis and procmail. That's a bit of overkill IMHO. I read in the documentation that Amavis can call sendmail via the command line. Is this interface flexible enough to call procmail instead? Is anybody aware of a wrapper script? Perhaps there is also an easy way to configure postfix to act as an MDA.
Did anybody have to deal with this kind of setup in the past? Best regards, Jona Joachim ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
