Bug ID: 7797
Summary: spamc: 500k default max_size for spamc is too small
for today's use
Product: Spamassassin
Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: spamc/spamd
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: Undefined
Relaying this request from https://bugs.debian.org/951545 on behalf of Russell
Coker <[email protected]>:
When we ran mail servers on 32bit systems a default of skipping spam checks on
the rare messages that were more than 500k in size made sense.
Nowadays messages larger than that are normal and scanning a 10MB message is
not a problem for CPU use or memory allocation on most systems.
I believe that the default should just work for most people who don't have
unusual needs. Running spamassassin on a 32bit system nowadays is an
unusual situation that the users could be expected to tune for. Running it
on a system with many gigs of RAM is more the usual case.
