Re: Filtering mail based on header contents
I would recommend you simply monitor your email, checking the SPAM scoring. There are two levels at which you can bounce SPAM in SpamAssasin. You will likely want to set the higher level to bounce after you have chosen what score you want to set for the bouncing. Redirecting to a mailbox will get tedious for you to manually filter through. This is a bit off topic for this list, so if you need help with configuration settings, you can email me directly. -Derek At 12:44 AM 8/9/2006, Christopher Martin wrote: I have a mail system on which I have recently implemented spamassassin with Pyzor, DCC and Razor.

Re: Filtering mail based on header contents
I have a mail system on which I have recently implemented spamassassin with Pyzor, DCC and Razor. I am really happy with the tagging accuracy and am ready to start filtering mail. I know spamassassin can be configured to drop all mail with a score over a certain amount, but I am concerned about NO SA only tag the mail, it never drops anything. Droping email is a bad attitude if you don't send a bounce, and as it it impossible to bounce a spam, then you should not drop spam email. dropping false positives. I would really prefer to either drop it in a folder for each user, or just send them all to a mailbox. The system we use has two tiers: mail enters the filtering server running sendmail, spamassassin Pyzor and DCC, which then sends to a qmail/courier-imap server. I would prefer to have the actual mailbox server drop the mail into a spam folder in each user's mailbox, but I realise that this could be a bit ambitious. Also, not all of the users use IMAP (about half use POP) so differentiating between IMAP and POP users is important. Does anyone have any suggestions? I solved that by putting email tagged as spam into quarantine. Once a day I submit to the users an email summary of their quarantine and they can recover any message by replying. Failing that, is there an easy way to filter based on header content (Spamassassin score) in Sendmail on the filtering machine, or would I have to implement procmail or some such to redirect all spam to one mailbox? But I do that with procmail, at the delivery level :) http://www.cs.ait.ac.th/laboratory/email/quarantine.shtml Best regards, Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
