Re: Microsoftheaded, hugely stupid - procmail recipe
Okay, I don't proclaim to be a procmail expert, so no laughing... I put the following in the procmailrc on one of our mailservers just now: :0: * > 8 * ^Subject:.*(Install this patch immediately|Current Microsoft Critical Upgrade|Current Update) /home/tmp/fakepatch Basically, looking at all messages above 80K in size, and then looking for 1 of 3 subject variants reported so far, and then if it all matches pushing the message into a message file for later review. I'd like to me able to see some of the bodies of the emails, in order to target the filter a little better. Any comments/suggestions/etc welcome. If this rule works (the particular server its on average 1 message every 3 seconds) I'll push it out to the larger/busier servers that handle the customer accounts (above 10K mailboxes total). I'm also working on a perl/cgi-based procmail manager (we have about a dozen email servers to maintain) that allows you to have 1 "master" procmail body that can be edited via html GUI and then sync'd to the remote boxes. -- Brian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

If/when you do, do you think you might be able to share it here? I have users on my system who could really use procmail but don't have time to learn the syntax. (Most can't even figure out how to use a bash prompt...)

In the meantime, check out the procmail module in Webmin, it can write basic procmail rules for you. FWIW, I'm concentrating less on automagic writing, and more on keeping many systems in sync, but maybe I'll add in more "Wizard-like" (or actually, I prefer "Magical Elf" to "Wizard"...) capabilities to write rules. ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
