I'm SA interpreted the Received header as meaning that athena.apache.org

no reverse DNS claiming to be vms173003pub.verizon.net. At least, that's
how I'd read that header.. the FM_FAKE_HELO_VERIZON is likely an early
rule trying to detect hosts using verizon helo's that aren't really
verizon hosts.



well i asked if you know reverse dns patterns olso for verizon net or if
verizon olso know there trouble ?, few years i have seen spam from verizon
but not more then from others, it could nice to know atleast for me if

maybe you use smtp auth now on this msg here ?

if so that fake helo should not be fake :=)
  
Well, it shouldn't be fake, because 206.46.173.3 really is 
vms173003pub.verizon.net.


However, it would appear that athena.apache.orgdidn't get an answer to

Personal attacks are not relevant to the topic.

Sending someone a CC to a message they sent, and to which their mail

You can't apply priority to DNS based checks this way and be 100% sure 
of never getting a match.


DNS queries are launched before any other rules start running. It then 
runs the rules, and collects the results later on. This way, the DNS 
queries run in parallel with the message scan.


A shortcircuit will cause SA to cut-short any waiting for answers on the 
DNS tests, but IIRC, any that did complete already will still match. 
Technically, SA waits until something like priority 500 before it starts 
waiting for all the DNS tests to complete.


In general, shortcircuit isn't intended to be a rule-bypassing measure, 
it's a speed measure. You'd have to use a non DNS test to be sure that 
shortcircuit is working.

You don't want that, really. If you use a trained bayes, it helps all. 
You do not have to have all spam that your family gets also. Don't 
forget that bayes auto-learns also. So just take your ham/spam, keep 
bayes in training, and let it learn. Feed all e-mails with it, and the 
results will be good.

Benny, you might want to read the docs:


"priority SYMBOLIC_TEST_NAME n
Assign a specific priority to a test. All tests, except for DNS and Meta
tests, are run in increasing priority value order (negative priority values
are run before positive priority values). The default test priority is 0

Raising the threshold will result in more emails that are obviously spam

make your antispam efforts look less effective - you're guaranteeing 
yourself more false negatives.


Leaving the threshold at 5 and deleting at the higher threshold will

spams don't get delivered.

Refine that a bit. Leave the threshold at 5 so that suspicious  
messages get marked, but delete at a high level (e.g. 10+)


What should be done with marked messages?


If they are spam, the user can drop them into their spam training  
folder - the assumption is bayes doesn't recognize them well enough  
yet, but that isn't always the case.


If you want to minimize the number of weak-scores spams that your  
users have to see, and you are less sensitive to FPs (which your  
original proposal suggests) then you'd just delete at a lower score  
(e.g. 9+ or 8+).

Why not let others train? Just give each user training folders.


The rest of family is rather computer agnostic and I'm happy they  
get along with the Thunderbird filter well.


That's reasonable. In my experience what you'll see when you review  
the mailbox is a few false positives that you can copy to the user's  
ham training folder for them. They will generally just delete any  
spams unless you stress repeatedly that spams which leak thorough  
shold go into the spam training folder rather than the trash, and  
you may be able to tell the MUA's classifier to save to the spam  
training folder rather than deleting.

It's better if you train with all users' email. Note that *you*  
may actually be doing the training, but it's still their email.


Another option would be to completely disable the statistic filters  
for my family and leave this completely up to Thunderbird. I would  
be using another SA config with statistics. How to implement this?  
Is is sufficient to use "spamc -F nostat.cf" with "use_bayes 0" in  
the config file and just spamc for me? Are these two spamc  
invocations are seperated from eath other?


I'd recommend against that, personally. Bayes is very helpful even  
if you can't get your users to train it themselves.

spamc is invoked from the maildrop MDA. I can't change the system user

that act like they were different users.


You might want to have Thunderbird move spams to the spam training

the classification at the server (which is where it should be) will  
get better.

Most of it will be visible only to you. My wife and MiL don't worry

Then again, it also depends on how allergic to receiving _any_ spam

Most of it will be visible only to you. My wife and MiL don't worry 
about training and they get along well.


Then again, it also depends on how allergic to receiving _any_ spam your 
users are.

It's better if you train with all users' email. Note that *you* may

Another option would be to completely disable the statistic filters

sufficient to use "spamc -F nostat.cf" with "use_bayes 0" in the

seperated from eath other?

spamassassin is still running spamtest with that, if one really like to
destingt domains from each other make a policy table in mysql and add
policy pr domain, (can be done in amavisd.conf olso, i just lost how)

what you did just disables the spam headers, not the scanning

add users in that table with @domain and setup policy table as domain likes

Could you send the whole DSN, please?

My guess is someone's mail setup on this list is re-routing mails by Header
"To:" and re-posting received messages. Perhaps these duplicates would
be caught later, but due to SPF, they are refused earlier.

Especially interesting is which server is sending the DSNs.

Train and use bayes on different adresses

2008-06-26 Thread Florian Lindner

Hello,
I use (honestly: I plan) the following procedure to filter my spam  
using SA:


All mails are piped through spamc. (emails for my family and me).  
required_score is set to high value of 9 to avoid false postives. Mail  
which is detected as spam is being deleted.


All SA filtering is done on the server side. On the client side  
additional filtering is done by statistic filters of Apple Mail and  
Thunderbird.


Now I want to train the server SA filter by moving the junk mails  
(whish have slipped through SA) on the client into an IMAP folder.  
This is done only with the mail I receive, not the one the rest of  
family receive.


Will this setup cause any problems? I ask because the bayes filter I  
train with only my email is used for all email.


Thanks,

Florian


Short circuit priority doesnt seem to work

2008-06-26 Thread ram
Hi 

In my local.cf I have 

--
score USER_IN_SPF_WHITELIST -100

priority USER_IN_SPF_WHITELIST -1000
priority RCVD_IN_XBL -800


shortcircuit USER_IN_SPF_WHITELIST on
shortcircuit RCVD_IN_XBL spam
--



So I expect RCVD_IN_XBL to be evaluated after USER_IN_SPF_WHITELIST ,
but this does not happen 
If a mail hits RCVD_IN_XBL it is immediately marked spam even if it were
to hit USER_IN_SPF_WHITELIST 
I disable short circuit plugin and it works fine 


How do I enforce SA to wait for results negative short circuited rules
of higher priority  before shorcicuiting mail as spam due to positive
ones


Thanks
Ram

Oh, your real question was "how do I"  Well, that depends on how you

I see, and got it working.  Next question:  How would I set it up so that
I could have a separate whitelist for each user (I only have four users)? 
Again, I call spamassassin from procmail, and each user has its own
procmailrc, so I can easily hardcode in the command as an argument to
spamassassin.  But I haven't seen a way yet to tell spamassassin to look
in a particular place for the .cf files for the plugins.  On bluehost,
somehow spamassassin knows to look in the ~/.spamassassin folder for the
*.cf files.  Worst case I write a rule to copy the right .cf file into
place depending on which procmailrc is executing (and placing in some file
locks of course), but I'd hate to kludge that into place.

well, seems it does not hit that often:

grep -F 'spamd: result:' /var/log/local3.1 | wc -l
1182

grep -F 'DCC' /var/log/local3.1 | wc -l

45

grep -F 'spamd: result: Y' /var/log/local3.1 | grep -F DCC | wc -l
32

(my agressive blacklists prevent much spam from reaching SA, if I removed
them, result may be much different)

in my filter I'm invoking spamassassin with spamc.

None of the 76 junk messages I filtered with spamc since I activared  
DCC contains an information about the DCC_CHECK test. (grep DCC_CHECK *)


I'm using Debian etch with SA 3.1.7.

Thanks,

odd? :) they are two settings just so they could differ (so we could trust
some host while not taking them as internal).

Not only. We trust our dialup users until we'll force them to SMTP AUTH.

But we may trust some other mailservers (freemails) that relay mail, so we
won't check for blacklists them, but machines they are relaying from
(which may be bad if they whitelisted their dialups, but that's different

We've had a high at beginnin of June, and now we're very low in spam 
volume. Maybe "they" prepare a new burst for the holidays? Or they know 
spamming in July/August isn't all that helpful and keep their Viagra in
