[qmailtoaster] Backup MX with spamdyke

[South Computers]

Finally got around to putting spamdyke on my servers. Yes, yes  I'm 
a bit behind.


Anyway, wondering if I should put it on my backup mx boxes as well.  
Pros or Cons?


Thank you kindly,
Scott

Sorry.

Guess my last message isn't going anywhere until spamdyke sees me 
sending another one here.

Can you post the error?

Are you using Courier-IMAP or Dovecot for IMAP? Dovecot seems to do a
better job for handling bigger folders thatn Courier.

And also check that you do not have a domain level quota enabled?

Best,
Peter

Re: [qmailtoaster] QMT & DSPAM

[Casey Price]

Just to add to my previous post, has anyone tried using DSPAM in 
client/server mode? I'm wondering if in my situation I could setup DSPAM 
on my gateway servers alongside of spamdyke and then use the DSPAM 
client from the QMT box that actually contains the mailboxes. I haven't 
found a whole lot about client/server mode aside from the short blurb in 
the readme file so I thought I'd check with everyone on here.


Also, it looks like there are DSPAM RPMs (looks like they are on track 
with the latest version) on the EPEL repo or the extra packages portion 
of rpmforge. Should I try using these RPMs and reconfiguring/repackaging 
them or just install from source?


Thanks guys.

I know there has been some talk in the past about integrating Qmail

Google search brought up several guides to using DSPAM with Qmail, and 
it doesn't sound incredibly difficult.


I think this might be the answer for the spam filtering portion of 
what I've been trying to figure out for my company.


Is anyone on the list using DSPAM with QMT? If so, do you have any 
comments regarding how well it works/how difficult it was to setup?


Thanks,

No. Rebuilding is rarely needed. If there are any dependent packages 
that need to be rebuilt, qtp-newmodel will do it automagically.

I am using DSPAM and it is giving me about 98% accuracy. Please note 
that I using it only with about 4 users now. Not sure how it will work 
with many users. According to the website it can handle many many users.


Currently I am using the TOE and with group feature because we cannot 
expect the users to teach DSPAM. So the users use my teaching for their 
anti-spam. I would be even more accurate when the users teach the DSPAM 
by themselves.


What I like is the teaching method. Just forward the spam email to 
s...@yourdomainname.com.


It is great. Just that I have not personally done anything with many users.

Nice! Did you build it from source, or use the RPMs from EPEL? I just 
downloaded the source RPM and have been taking a look at the specfile 
and looking at what options I might need to change to get it to work 
with QMT. Which configuration options is your dspam built with?


A couple of the options I'm not completely clear on are 
--enable-domain-scale, --enable-large-scale, and --enable-homedir


Any details you can provide are much appreciated!
