RE: [qmailtoaster] mailfilter, .Spam subfolder

[Jared Markell]

At least I know it's purposely not being used and something's not just broken on my machine. ;)   Is there any way to force it back into the mailing handling functions so it runs for everyone? I have so many email users it would take me forever to do the .qmail for everyone of them, and to remember to create it for new users. (A lot of our email users have a hard enough time finding the power button on their machine let alone creating a rule in Outlook to throw ***SPAM*** into a folder.   I have no problem creating a script to delete old spam mails to solve the quota problem.   Any help will be greatly appreciated.   Jared From: Jake Vickers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 5:37 PM To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] mailfilter, .Spam subfolder Jared Markell wrote: Curious, does qmail and SA use /etc/mail/mailfilter?   I'm trying to set it up so that mail that comes in marked as spam gets moved to a ".Spam" folder. (it can be all marked spam, or spams over a certain rating, I don't care which).   According to mailfilter, it already does just that.. anything above a "12" SA rating gets sent to sa-learn and shoves the mail into that user's .Spam folder (and creates that folder if it doesn't exist). But it doesn't look like any of that is happening...   Also, does it only work on emails directory to a user, or if the spam was sent to an alias, will it still go to the user's .Spam folder who finaly recieves that message?   You'll need to cerate/edit a .qmail file for each user that you want the mailfilter script run for. In the past there was an issue with the quota system and this script so it was no longer used but there is a workaround. I suggest having a script process the .Spam dir and remove messages more than 5 days old or so. That way it doesn't fill up the mailbox. AFAIK, it gets moved to the Spam box for the delivered user, since there is no folder for an alias.
