I'm trying to use the Handler that integrates Mailman with SpamAssassin as
described at http://www.jamesh.id.au/articles/mailman-spamassassin/ and
referenced in the Mailman FAQ. Although I'm a relative newbie, I am using a
similar handler that integrates ClamAV with Mailman successfully. However,
I can't get the SA handler to work - Known spam gets delivered to the list
as if SA was not involved at all. Spamd is running and SA otherwise working
fine with other non-list email I have the python scripts SpamAssassin.py
and spamd.py in the Mailman/Handlers directory with ownership list:list
(works with clamav script) and have tried root:list.

Is there anything in the logs? I am running a similar setup and it is working fine.

My Mailman mm_cfg.py pertinent part looks like this:

GLOBAL_PIPELINE.insert(1, 'SpamAssassin')
#SPAMASSASSIN_HOST = 'my.domain.com' <----tried with and without specifying
the hostname
#
# Scan messages for viruses using Clam AntiVirus
GLOBAL_PIPELINE.insert(1, 'ClamScan')
CLAMAV_DISCARD = 0
CLAMAV_CLAMDSCANPATH = '/usr/bin/clamdscan'

About the same for me.

I additionally have:

SPAMASSASSIN_DISCARD_SCORE = 8
SPAMASSASSIN_HOLD_SCORE = 5
SPAMASSASSIN_MEMBER_BONUS = 42

MTA is Postfix. Linux is Debian Sarge (Testing). I've googled myself

Exim on stable (but a recent mm from cvs).

logs/vette should show you discarded messages.

Cheers,
Gerhard

I found some clues in vette. My main problem was that SPAMASSASSIN_HOST = 'localhost' was the only thing that worked for me - using my FQDN' or hostname did not work. Then my testing was obfuscated by using a spam that was above the hold score. Tnx bandwidth and tips received. Working great now. - John
