[qmailtoaster] Increased spam recently

2011-01-30 Thread Postmaster

Hello all,


During the beginning 2011, I can see an increased amount of spam getting 
through. All spam e-mails are sent from yahoo/hotmail account with

more or less similar text as follows:

-
A couple of weeks ago I tried to figure out day trading, and long term 
trading in the market. I saw alot of places that notified me if 
somethings a strong buy most of them are totally bogus, till i found 
this one and I was showing atleast 150% returns on all the Symbols they 
reco'd in just 2 days! Here check it out and let me know Penny Picks1 
http://t.co/0jZUTDg

-

The spamassassin is not detecting spam scoring only 2.5 out of 4.

Any idea how to battle it? Would envoking 
ip-in-rdns-keyword-blacklist-file option help it?


Many thanks
Alex

hi,

 for reducing spam
STEP1-Goto /usr/share/spamassain- remove the files 72-active.cf and
50-scores.cf, before removing take the backup of these files and create the
files with the  same name in the /usr/share/spamassain


STEP2Goto /etc/mail/spamassassin

add the following line in local.cf
score FH_DATE_PAST_20XX
