OT: Alternative for Spamassassin
Hi List, I`m looking for a SA replacement in an large scale enviroment. DSPAM seems to use filesystem (--with-userdir=) for various functions which is not what i want. dspam also needs per user activation. Anything except Mailstorage is placed in DB and i don`t want to change this. Does anybody know software which can replace SA and: - don`t use/need Filesystem access (except for caches and/or temp storage) - Support for 80k+ Users, Multiple node cluster - Flexible config per User (SQL Based) I`ve already read some descriptions from other projects but many of them fail on the filesystem requirement. Any ideas ? Greets Michael

Does anybody know software which can replace SA and: - don`t use/need Filesystem access (except for caches and/or temp storage) - Support for 80k+ Users, Multiple node cluster - Flexible config per User (SQL Based) Just for the books: You are aware that all your requirements can be met by Spamassassin, too. - SA can be configured to use filesystem for cache/tmp only - SA scales up to 80k+ users and more. - SA allows for SQL based rules; the config file goes into files. IIRC you can get around that too, but I am not 100% sure at the moment. I am already aware of this. How you run SA depends on how you hook it into the system. Have you considered We use amavisd-new which handle also the custom rulesets in SQL. Maybe i am too much geek to get satisfied with this simple solution :) Any other reasons to reject SA? Yes, i don`t like it :) We already use SA in this Cluster with SQL. And i (with my mailboxes) have no problems with it. But i see that SA results getting worser and worser - or the spam is getting better - you name it. Anyway, our customers complaining the usual way ( to much spam in my inbox...) and are not getting smarter (i don`t want to train SA...) so i must bear the challenge :) Greets Michael

DSPAM seems to use filesystem (--with-userdir=) That is only if you want local users to be able to use DSPAM. That --with-userdir is NOT required if you don't have any local users or don't want to consider user homes. for various functions which is not what i want. dspam also needs per user activation. That is simply not true. I could`t find any example which cover this fact. The docs are not pointing me to the right direction. Maybe you could provide me an example config or other docs ? I already have an test machine so i could test this in no time. Anything except Mailstorage is placed in DB and i don`t want to change this. Does anybody know software which can replace SA and: - don`t use/need Filesystem access (except for caches and/or temp storage) - Support for 80k+ Users, Multiple node cluster - Flexible config per User (SQL Based) I`ve already read some descriptions from other projects but many of them fail on the filesystem requirement. DSPAM would do what you want EXCEPT if you need/want the DSPAM Web UI then it will fail because of the filesystem requirements. This would be no Problem. Greets Michael
