Hey!  Good idea.  Dropping that in right now.

Thanks ;)

The way its written in the manual it just looked like it would be a
wildcard.  You can't have a $ sign in a valid domain name or an email
address so I just assumed thats what it was.
Thanks for pointing this out -- the manual has been changed to clearer 
examples.

>For the odc.ca rule, what are you looking to block?

We've been getting messages like this:

X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
[207.158.45.51]

With the sending username containing odc.ca we could block these no problem.
But if I don't cut it off before the @ it'll drop all our internal email
too.
Perhaps blocking on "odc.ca." would be the best option here (including the 
"." at the end)?

The way its written in the manual it just looked like it would be a
wildcard.  You can't have a $ sign in a valid domain name or an email
address so I just assumed thats what it was.  On closer examination of the
explanitory text, seeing the "$domain" and "$success$@" within quotes should
have clued me in.

[quote]

HELO 8 CONTAINS $domain
SUBJECT 3 CONTAINS enlarge
MAILFROM 3 STARTSWITH $success$@
BODY 3 CONTAINS To unsubscribe, click here

The first one would look for HELO/EHLO text that contains "$domain" in it
(and if it does, a weight of 8 will be added to the weight of the E-mail),
the second one would look for an E-mail that contains "enlarge" in it and
add 3 to the weight of the E-mail, and the last one would look for a return
address beginning with "$success$@" (and add 3 to the weight of the E-mail
if there is a match).

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Rule Mistake

2003-07-09 Thread R. Scott Perry

I understood the $'s to behave as wildcards.  Removing them will work for
the stderr, and bounce rules but if I leave odc.ca in there without a
wildcard and an @ it will drop all internal mail.  Is there another way I
can fix this?
Declude JunkMail doesn't include wildcards.

For the odc.ca rule, what are you looking to block?

Also, what can I do to ensure the proper config files are
used?
Nothing -- Declude JunkMail takes care of that automatically.  :)

I thought global.cfg and $default$.junkmail where the only ones used.
That is correct (unless you have set up per-user or per-domain 
configuration files).

Just as a matter of interest where did you get the idea that "$"
was a wildcard character?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter Rule Mistake

2003-07-09 Thread R. Scott Perry

I've got a custom filter that isn't generating any error messages, but fails
to catch the spam I want it to.  Perhaps someone could point out the
problem?
>From spamfilter.txt:

MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS $stderr$
MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS $bounce$
MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS $odc.ca$@
The problem is the "$" in there -- it should look like:

MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS stderr
MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS bounce
MAILFROM 0 CONTAINS odc.ca@
If that doesn't work, the next step would be to search the log file for 
"SPAMFILTER", to see if E-mails are actually failing the test (you can't 
rely on the E-mail being re-routed by the ROUTETO command, as it is 
possible that a different configuration file may be used).
