Re: RelayCountry plugin doesn't add header

But it doesn't work. If you just want a header added with the relay countries listed then you'll need to patch SA (3.1x) see the wiki (or review recent threads here). Otherwise you need to specify in either local.cf or a dedicated conf file those countries you want to see in the headers and with which score. To test these I wrote a simple script (I'm no programmer) below which writes Relay_Countries.cf which you can put in your spamassassin directory. You can enable/disable each entry by toggling the value of the 1st field and adjust the scores by amending the last field. You can then tweak to just track those countries you are interested in. I did include all the country codes as listed on the ISO site.

Re: rules_du_jour not working confusion?
By default, there is no duplication. sa-update will update only the stock rules. However, there have been additional channels created for sa-update to allow it to update the SARE rules as well. You just add the ones you want to your sa-update channels file. One advantage RDJ seems to have is that it won't leave you in the situation of a non functional SA because your updated rules don't lint. If using sa-update for SARE rules, are these stored in the same location as the originals or are they downloaded to the /var/lib/spamassassin tree? If so is there a migration guide somewhere on moving from RDJ to sa-update? Alan

On 8/26/05 5:01 PM this was written: From: Thomas Deliduka [EMAIL PROTECTED] I couldn't find an answer to this in the archives. My apologies if this is there. I ran a test on a spam (spamassassin -t spam) and within the rules that matched it outputted these: 0.6 URIBL_SBL Contains an URL listed in the SBL blocklist 3.9 URIBL_SC_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the SC SURBL blocklist 2.0 URIBL_OB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist 0.5 URIBL_WS_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the WS SURBL blocklist 2.0 URIBL_AB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the AB SURBL blocklist 1.5 URIBL_JP_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the JP SURBL blocklist However, the mail server when using amavisd-new checks spam, it never checks against this SURBL blocklist. I see in init.pre this line: loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL Which I think is related. But in either case. Why would it check within the testing system but not when the actual program checks? Is there a way to enable it? I don't know about amavisd-new from shucked corn; but, I understand it runs its own daemonized spamassassin. If so then you may have to restart it. With spamd you certainly have to restart the daemon to get it to read changes to the configuration files, with the exception of the user's configuration files. Spamd is not called from amavisd-new. It calls spamassassin directly. The configuration information with respect to individual SURBL's needs to go into SURBL.cf in the directory you store your spamassassin information (e.g. /etc/mail/spamassassin). To use SURBL's you need the load plugin statement in init.pre. So if it works from calling spamassasin on the command line it should be the same as when amavisd-new calls it. My last guess at why the difference, is that you were not logged in as the amavis user when you ran spamassassin. HTH Alan

Being new to amavisd-new I'm still getting used to its architecture.

SA not accepting *any* external connections on the one mailhub i upgraded on. The other 2 hubs are running fine but still using 2.63. all hubs are solaris sun boxes. Is there any configuration changes needed for version3 cause i havent seen any refernce to it in the sourece or readmes... Did you try here? http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.0.x/dist/UPGRADE
Building SA3 on RH9
I've built a set of rpm's from the SA3 tar.gz I've used yum for updates and have installed the perl modules which means I have perl-Mail-SpamAssassin and spamassassin installed. I have however not found perl(Parse::Syslog) or perl(Statistics::Distributions) needed for spamassassin-tools. I just wanted to check the best method of getting these modules as I know RH can be a bit fussy and I want to avoid getting modules in the wrong part of the perl tree. Thanks Alan
