Hello list,
I've been working on getting DSPAM deployed and have implemented it on
my own (CentOS 5) email server with great results. I've put it on a
client's (CentOS 5) QMT, so far, with good results. I followed the
instructions on this fellow's site <https://qmail.jms1.net/dspam/> but
wanted to use the Redhat Package Manager for ease of upgrade and came up
with the below procedure using EPEL (If anyone is interested):
I've changed the stock configuration file so that spam is tagged and
delivered rather than quarantined. Training is done per user on an one's
IMAP '.spam' and '.notspam' folders.
The reason for implementing DSPAM were as follows: Out of 56,000 emails
for the month of October 17,000 were being blocked by Spamdyke. and
about 1/2 to 2/3 of the rest, 39,000 emails, were being tagged by
Spamassassin. With these great numbers clients were still inundated with
spam. We tried Sonicwall's Anti-Spam service, at first with great
results, but with their firmware upgrade things went to smash. Sonicwall
admitted it was a problem on their side but have yet to correct the problem.
If anyone would like to see my dspam.conf file or the training scripts I
use, please ask.
Eric
Instructions (hopefully I've not forgotten anything):
Step 1)
Add EPEL Repo (For YOUR Distribution):
http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories
Step 2)
Set priorities according to centos:
http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities
Step 3)
Create the dspam database according to the following site and outlined
below (http://qmail.jms1.net/dspam/):
***Note: After creating the DSPAM database you must type the command
'use dspam;'
$ cd /usr/share/dspam/sql-scripts/mysql
$ mysql -u root -p Enter password: (Enter your mysql root password.)

Step 4)
Install appropriate software. From command line type the following:
yum install dspam dspam-client dspam-mysql
Step 5)
Change permissions on configuration file:
chmod 744 /etc/dspam.conf
Step 6)
Change permissions to the folder containing dspam.sock
chmod 777 /var/run/dspam
Step 7)
Start dspam service and turn it on:
service start dspam
chkconfig dspam on
Step 8)
Replace the line in
'/home/vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.com/.qmail-default' with the following:
| /usr/bin/dspamc --user "$EXT@$HOST" --deliver=stdout |
/home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox
This is great, EB.
Just be aware that qmailadmin changes the .qmail-default file (when
changing catchall setting), and user .qmail files will override the
.qmail-default value as well.
I noticed recently that simscan can use dspam, but I think implementing
it during delivery makes more sense, as it's more of a personal (account
based) spam filter than a global filter like spamassassin.
I definitely want to include dspam in the stock QMT at some point, and
this is a big help toward making that happen.
Thanks.
