In that case, then I know the answer to your question. The reason you have to run the spamassassin twice, is because the output of this first run is never used...
I think this gets back to how queue message files are not editable and so on... the only data used from your first run is the return code to make a decision, whereas the second run is in delivery mode, and the modified message is actually used to deliver the message. I wonder if there is a way to use your smtpfilter to silently mark the message as delivered and handle it directly, but that might break delivery to bcc, cc, etc. addresses. Does that explain it for you or confuse you further? Regardless, I think your bounce trick is a nice one. Do you see a way to run a maildrop filter from a central location on recept - like maildroprc? I've been moving away from per user config files to a system based on database lookup and a centralized maildroprc with conditional code (based on environment variables) - would be nice to do the same for this type of filtering. m/ -----Original Message----- From: Troy Benjegerdes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 10:46 AM To: Mitch (WebCob) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [courier-users] Spamassasin, maildropfilter, and courier-mta integration Documentation is occasionally hard to find.. This is useing the embedded mode of maildrop. http://www.courier-mta.org/localmailfilter.html You also need to have a '/etc/courier/maildropfilter' file with the location of your version of maildrop.
