RE: [expert] Spamassassin + CommuniGate Pro config
Thanks. Are you using this setup? I also need to know how scaliable spamassassin is. Will it handle 20,000 users at around 30 emails a second. Keep in mind that their will be a virus scanner, communigate using their webmail for around 15,000 of the users, 2,000 using pop or imap and the other 3,000 are forwarded to MS exchange(including myself and I hate it too, but once someone sets it up you get locked into It big time. It's the heart of communicatios so there isn't much that can be done except upgrade when a new version comes out.) The OS is RedHat Advance server (RHAS) (I know this mandrake but the redhat mailing list sucks). The box will be a dell poweredge 6450 with Quad Xeon Processors @ 2GHz and 16 GB DDR SDRAM(not purchased). One question is if anyone knows about the clustering for RHAS would it be possible to use smaller system (poweredge 2650)and a NAS for storage. With say 3 of them with dual processors, would you get more avaliablity and power for less cost? I don't know if you can do that with communigate but just a though I had instead of putting on a big box and then having a redundant server (not quite as beefy) Thanks Brian -Original Message- From: John Haywood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 10, 2003 7:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] Spamassassin + CommuniGate Pro config On Fri, 10 Jan 2003 07:12 am, Brian York wrote: If anyone is using these two together would someone please send me some configuration files.

Re: [expert] Spamassassin + CommuniGate Pro config
There's a very good SpamAssassin mailing list on spamassassin.org and an even better Postfix mailing list at postfix.org where these issues are discussed frequently. I recommend you ask there. From lurking on both lists, I can give you some general guidelines: use spamc/spamd (sorta like mod_perl for SA), use a procmail filter to prevent large messages going into SA, use MTA-level RBL filtering to keep obvious spam from going into SA, and then realize that SA is a Perl program doing some very complicated pattern matching -- it is a hog.

[expert] Spamassassin + CommuniGate Pro config
If anyone is using these two together would someone please send me some configuration files. I have a teriable time getting it to work. If they go in more than one place zip them in the file structure in the place were they should go. Email config files to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you don't want to send them to the listserv. Thanks Brian
