Re: [Mimedefang] STILL : MIMEDEFANG NOT TAGGING
Yes, you do need Mail::Spamassasin perl libraries installed, but you do not need spamd. Spamd is the daemon, procmail rules hit the spamassassin script itself.. not spamd or spamc, at least from what I have seen... (we don't use procmail here and let end users select ham/spam/whitelist via openwebmail). :0fw: spamassassin.lock | /user/bin/spamassassin :0: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes caughtspam (Straight fom the wiki) I don't know.. maybe you would get better performance using spamc/spamd in a sitewide install using procmail verses /user/bin/spamassassin (probably would, but then you woudl need to have spamd running), but I think youd get even greater performance using mimedefang... esp if you are already using it anyway. Also, though I have not tested this as we have not had a need.. I believe spamassassin will still look for a user_pref file in each users home dir and append that config to the ones it finds in /etc/mail/spamassassin/*.cf whether run from mimedefang or seperately... I know it picks up configs in /etc/mail/spamassassin/*.cf when run from mimedefang.

Re: [Mimedefang] STILL : MIMEDEFANG NOT TAGGING
I would like to clarify: You DO need Spamassassin to be installed. But, the "spamd" process it not used by MimeDefang. HOWEVER, if you want the full capabilities of Spamassassin (MimeDefang utilizes a fair amount of spamassassin's features, but not individual user preferences such as whitelists and blacklists per user), you DO need to run "spamd" with either a local .procmailrc file (with procmail installed, of course) or a system-wide .procmailrc file. #> more /etc/procmailrc DROPPRIVS=yes :0fw * < 256000 | /usr/bin/spamc -Rich James Ebright wrote: [..snip..]You do NOT need spamd or sa at all.. mimedefang takes care of that.

Re: [Mimedefang] STILL : MIMEDEFANG NOT TAGGING
You need to look in the redhat dir in the cource dir for mimedefang and grab
the init script for redhat and install and sart it as well.
Even if fedoras sendmail init script makes the cf file I'd do that myself
anyway. You do NOT need spamd or sa at all.. mimedefang takes care of that.
You DO need to make sure you have a milter setup for mimedfang.. but do NOT
want one for spamd (this is in sendmail.mc).
Important config files for a redhat or redhat clone:
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc/cf
/etc/sysconfig/mimedefang
/etc/mail/sa-mimedefang (this is in /etc/mail/spamassasin on older mimedefang
installs)
/etc/mail/mimedefang-filter
/etc/init.d/mimedefang (or mimedefang.init if you didnt rename it)
You should start mimedefang before sendmail (the script is chkconfig compliant)

You don't need spamd running at all. SpamAssassin is integrated into
MIMEDefang through pure Perl.

You need to make sure that logging is enabled for MIMEDefang
(MX_LOG=yes and SYSLOG_FACILITY=mail in /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang).
You also need to make sure that any optional function calls are enabled
(MX_RELAY_CHECK=yes, MX_SENDER_CHECK=yes, and/or MX_RECIPIENT_CHECK=yes
in /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang).
Then, just add lines like the following to your /etc/mail/mimedefang-
filter:
md_syslog('info', "md_info: Got here");
These will show up in /var/log/maillog.

[Mimedefang] STILL : MIMEDEFANG NOT TAGGING
I have fedora core 2 + mimedefang 2.42 + SA 2.64 + Sendmail. I've installed everything corectly : spamd starts ok, sa starts o dcc starts ok BUT no filtering occurs ?. I've modified sa-mimedefang.cf as well as miemdefang-filter, BUT I haven't compiled sendmail.mc to sendmail.cf. Is that essential ? Or does sendmail rebuild the .mc file at every "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail start" command ?. What kinda logs should I see in maillog if SA worked well with mimedefang and sendmail ?. /Hitete P.S; I'm on a gateway that can't be an issue can it ?. ___ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
