I made the following rule to specifically deal with stuff like this...


header LETDOTLET   Subject =~ /[a-zA-Z]\.[a-zA-Z]/
describe LETDOTLETSubject: Letter Dot Letter
score LETDOTLET 5.0



It works great for me but may be too restrictive for others...

I have the following setup

Mimedefang 2.37

Spamassassin 2.55

 

All running under Solaris 8

 

How can I get spamassassin to recognise the attached e-mail as spam.

 

I have looked through the tests on the spamassassin web site, but to no

Thanks in advance.

WOW!! I missed this rule. This rule is NOT good. High FP rate!!! 

All someone has to do is not put a space after a period, and *bang* they are
spam. What about abbreviations like USA with periods?

Hi Julia,

 -Original Message-
 From: McWhirter,Julia
 
 Larry/Jennifer,
 
 I have copied the chickenpox and popcorn rules which are 
 working fine thanks very much Jennifer.  Larry my install is 
 also outside the firewall and therefore needs site-wide 
 config and not user based and therefore getting bayes working 
 is going to mean collecting a lot of hams/spams and 
 transferring around (bit of a pain) but currently I have just 
 started collecting to one day get it to learn so that in the 
 future the need for some rules will be negated as you say.

Just thought I would add my experience in the outside chance it could help.
I am using Procmail in my site-wide config.  I was also utilizing Procmail
for whitelist.  What I decided to do is turn off my whitelist and instead
force feed those messages to sa-learn as ham *just* prior to feeding to
spamc.  I have been utilizing AWL along with auto_learn.  To date, it has
been working great.  About 99% of the legitimate newsletters requested
advertisements that used to be FPs are not being tagged as spam anymore but
the spam hit is actually more accurate.  I have only had to hand-feed maybe
15-20 messages as either ham or spam to sa-learn.  It has mostly been
hands-off.  The only thing I really spent any time with is removing the
newsletters and requested advertisements from AWL so that it would rescore.
I am not disappointed.

I have looked through the tests on the spamassassin web site, but to no

1) that's not a complete email it's only a body with partial headers, thus 
nobody will be able to test it against spamassassin.

2) these kind of obfuscating strings are very well handled by the bayes 
subsystem. You might want to consider enabling it and training it. see man 
sa-learn.

3) consider adding razor and network checks.

4) another part of getting SA to reliably tag emails is to keep it updated. 
This is a bit of work, but the current version is 2.60, not 2.55. 2.60 has 
a fresh mass-check/ga run.  2.55 is using the mass-check data from 2.50, 
but has a newer GA run that was done for 2.54 (I think, or 2.53). Still 
it's slightly stale.

Note that 2.60 requires razor to be patched to work with razor.

5) there's a lot of custom rule design being done by some enthusiasts. 
There's no GAing or mass-checking of these rules yet, but some of the rules 
can be helpful in picking up a particular kind of new spam. www.exit0.us.

See the topics on SpamAssassin's Learn Feature. You'll need to feed it ham

Procmail? SpamAssassin won't 'block' anything. Only tag it as spam. What
you do with tagged e-mail is up to you. I'd NEVER recommend 'blocking' any
e-mails. Last thing you want is a false positive to never reach the user.

You could create custom rules for swear words and assign them point scores.

 3. Does anyone know of a mangament system for blocked spam? For example,
 the company I am in has 200+ people in the office. Lets say someones
 grandmother sends them a email with a swear (as above) and it gets
 blocked. how can I get that mail to them?

All depends on how you 'block' the spam.

IF you use the bayes subsystem, which is on by default but untrained as 
well, SA will engage in some automatic learning for the bayes rules. The 
remaining rules are static ones, and don't learn over time, but are updated 
whenever a new SA version is released.


2. My compnay wants to block all swears (dont ask me why!) How can this be
done?
Write some custom rules with high scores:

bodyLOCAL_SWEARWORD1/\bf***\b/i
score LOCAL_SWEARWORD1  10.0
Substitute f*** for your favorite swear word.. Be sure to frame your swear 
words with \b's so you don't get bugs like blocking analog when looking 
for anal. Also be sure each rule has a different name (ie: 
LOCAL_SWEARWORD2, LOCAL_SWEARWORD3, etc)

Also be sure to run spamassassin --lint after adding rules to check for 
typos.. SA can't complain about errors when processing mail normally.

More rule-writing tips can be found at
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/mkettler/sa/SA-rules-howto.txt

You could use MailScanner and have it quarantine any spams picked up by 
SA.. the spams wind in a quarantine directory, and you can manually queue 
them for delivery if you need to pass one on. Someone else might have a 
better suggestion, but that's what I can think of offhand.
