import message into DB after processing
Hello All, I would ask you if there is any tool/plugin for importing message into database ? Basically , as plugin for SA which at the end, when its already known if it is spam or not, it will push email and score info into DB. It sound efficient to me, because message is already open, so its not needed process it later again. Or anyone know similar tools ? Im using qmail and maildir format. thank you for any info.

Hello All,
I am little confused here. I have this rule in my .procmailrc file.
:0f
* ^[F|f]rom:.*aleks\.com
*
^[m|M]essage-[i|I][D|d]:.*aleks\.com|^Received:.*(authenticated).*\.aleks\.com
By default, procmail is case insensitive. You don't need to provide
upper and lower case. Also note, that [Ff] is a char class, no grouping
parenthesis. The | in there is a literal char, not an alternation. See
man procmailrc.
| formail -AX-ALEKS-Spam: none
#:0fwE
:0fw
* 256000
* !^X-ALEKS-Spam: none
* !^FROM_DAEMON
| /usr/bin/spamc
So according to this rule every email should have tag X-ALEKS-Spam:
none or it should be checked for spam. Now I get few mail that dont
go through spam and do not get the No-Spam tag. For example this
This isn't quite true. There are 2 other exceptions to this rule.
Notably an upper size limit of 256 kByte, which coincidentally is the
spamc limit, too. That means, if the mail in question is larger than 256
kByte, it won't be processed by spamc. A totally valid case for a mail
that got neither header.
Anyway, this is getting pretty much off-topic for this list. I'd check
your procmail recipes first, to see why the mail has not been been
processed by SpamAssassin.
Can some one please give me some hint why this happened. Why this
email was not checked by spamc.
Yup, exactly. :) Seems, the mail has not been processed by SA. Which is
not a SA issue, if spamc never has been called by procmail to filter the
mail...
Caveat: Didn't have a sane dose of coffee, yet. ;)

howto set bayes to ignore certain patterns?
Hi all, The bayes module a spamassassin is a handy one, but I just want to help him/her a bit, by telling what to ignore by default and not. I know which headers to ignore and set those using the bayes_ignore_header tags. But I would also like to ignore certain (pattern of) words. Does anyone know whether this will be possible, by either configure it directly using some config or delete the words on day to day basis using some kind of a script or some other alternative? Thanks a lot!, /Rick

Problem with writing rules based on X-headers
Hi, My site runs spamassassin. Our ISP runs a spam checker, that adds an X-header to our email of the form X-Spam-Bar: ### where the number of hashes indicate the likelihood of spam. I have written a rule for our spamassassin, which makes use of this X-header, so I can make use of both spam checkers. This has worked well and reliably for a number of years, until we upgraded from spamassassin 2.60 to spamassassin 3.1.9 Although all our other local rules work, this one no longer has any affect. It looks as if the header rules for version 3.1.9 no longer work on X-headers, although they did in version 2.60 Can anyone confirm this, and can anyone suggest a work around?? All help gratefully received. Dave The rule in question is header DWR X-Spam-Bar =~ /\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#/i describe DWR Contains: Spam detected by our ISP scoreDWR 5.50
dns problem - spamassassin bug?
I have two nameservers in my /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 10.10.10.11 nameserver 10.10.10.12 Now, the named daemon on 10.10.10.11 was stopped. The one on 10.10.10.12 was still up.

Just had a client demand a big discount on a device he tested for 2 months as a prototype, approved production of, THEN decided he didn't like the function of the lid latch. -- Jerry Durand, Durand Interstellar, Inc. www.interstellar.com tel: +1 408 356-3886, USA toll free: 1 866 356-3886 Skype: jerrydurand
Re: exposing rules
Assuming that you have managed to get SA to add headers to messages which is thinks are spam, and are looking to add a header to ALL messages so you can see what rules are firing on your HAM, then you can do the following. This may not be what you are after, but may be of some use! edit your local.cf file and add: add_header all Status _YESNO_, score=_SCORE_ required=_REQD_ tests=_TESTSSCORES(,)_ _DCCR_ _PYZOR_ _RBL_ autolearn=_AUTOLEARN_ languages=_LANGUAGES_ Note: this should all be added as ONE long line! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/exposing-rules-tf3979477.html#a11314268 Sent from the SpamAssassin - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Re: Problem with writing rules based on X-headers
David Robson wrote: Hi, My site runs spamassassin. Our ISP runs a spam checker, that adds an X-header to our email of the form X-Spam-Bar: ### where the number of hashes indicate the likelihood of spam. I have written a rule for our spamassassin, which makes use of this X-header, so I can make use of both spam checkers. This has worked well and reliably for a number of years, until we upgraded from spamassassin 2.60 to spamassassin 3.1.9 Although all our other local rules work, this one no longer has any affect. It looks as if the header rules for version 3.1.9 no longer work on X-headers, although they did in version 2.60 Can anyone confirm this, and can anyone suggest a work around?? All help gratefully received. It should work just fine. Two questions: 1) have you run spamassassin --lint after your upgrade? It could be that SA is choking on your config file further up and ditching it. 2) where is this declared? user_prefs, or a *.cf file in your site rules dir? 3) if user_prefs, do you use spamd? Do you have allow_user_rules set to 1 at the site rules level? Dave The rule in question is header DWR X-Spam-Bar =~ /\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#\#/i describe DWR Contains: Spam detected by our ISP scoreDWR 5.50 Looks perfectly fine to me.
attempt to manually remove address from AWL failing
I'm trying to /remove/ an address from my current AWL. Here's the active whitelist, % cd /usr/local/etc/spamassassin/.spamassassin/ % ls -al auto-whitelist -rw-rw 1 saadmin saadmin 10248192 Jun 26 16:04 auto-whitelist It contains this address, % check_whitelist auto-whitelist | grep carparts | grep info -1.5 (-16.6/11) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]|ip=11.222 I remove it, apparently successfully, % spamassassin --nocreate-prefs [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin auto-whitelist: removing address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] But the address still appears to be in the database, % check_whitelist auto-whitelist | grep carparts | grep info -1.5 (-16.6/11) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]|ip=11.222 Any hints as to what I'm doing incorrectly? -- Thanks, JTDeLys
training SA
Hello, I tried to learn SA and used the following syntax: sa-learn --spam -f /usr/home/zbyszek/june.txt archive-iterator: unable to open Dear Valued Customer,: No such file or directory june.txt is a spam email message downloaded from squirrelmail for the purpose of feeding to SA. I only got unable to open message. And at the end: Learned tokens from 0 message(s) (0 message(s) examined) I guess I made a mistake with the syntax but how should I change it so that I can train SA? Thank you in advance! Zbigniew Szalbot

I already found out: sa-learn --spam --no-sync /usr/home/zbyszek/june.txt Sorry to have bothered! Warm regards, Zbigniew Szalbot

Hi, Have you double checked the path for typos? Also, you may well need the -u switch. I use: sa-learn --spam -u sauser /downloads/spam mv -f /downloads/spam/*.Mail /downloads/spam/fn The last bit mv -f /downloads/spam/*.Mail /downloads/spam/fn is just copying the file to a dir so I can track what's been trained and is probably surplus to your requirements. I have mine as a script so I just call ./ham or ./spam as required. HTH Nigel
