Let me piggy-back on this question.

I'm using courier as my MTA. Typically the dspam installation would replace courier's DEFAULTDELIVERY from maildrop to dspam, and then have dspam call maildrop in order to make the actual deliveries.

Is it possible to use dspam with courier such that dspam is not the default delivery agent?

I thought about running dspam off of maildrop, but to do that it would have to be with the --stdout parameter. If I use --stdout, does dspam still keep statistics? I guess also that dspam will not use quarantine if run with --stdout.

A related question, if a user opts out of dspam, does dspam still call maildrop to deliver the message?

i have tried various ways of setting up dspam on a relay server but no
setup seems to work perfect.

unfortunately i dont' have a test server that i can use for testing.

is there a way i can pass particular users email through dspam while the
rest of the email goes through my initial spam setup (amavis SA)..

so that from the results of tests with these accounts i can perfect my
setup which i can deploy into production system wide.

You don't mention your MTA, but if you were running recent versions of Postfix (latest stable is 2.3.6) and amavisd-new (latest stable is 2.4.5) you could do what you want with multiple Postfix smtpd listeners and amavisd-new, using the latter's spam_lovers and policy_bank possibilities.

You'd be able to do everything a *lot* easier if you *did* have a test server, since if you aren't used to fiddling around with amavisd.conf you'd have to have a few goes at changing the .conf file before it worked for you. As far as this goes, the amavis ML would probably be able to help a lot - many subscribers there could save you from having to reinvent the wheel.
