enter your ip in the Spam datbase lookup @ http://dnsstuff.com

So, why is URIDNSBL only asking sbl.spamhaus.org ?
If i replace that ip with 127.0.0.2, spamassassin tells me this:
*  0.6 URIBL_SBL Contains an URL listed in the SBL blocklist
*  [URIs: 127.0.0.2]

So it does work, but only for sbl.spamhaus.org.
This is the odd thing, because in 25_uribl.cf all the surbl.org's are enabled 
too.
And in local.cf I added multi.uribl.com as well. Those are not queried.

It only does this with IPs. Urls are checked against all the uridnsbl's.

Some spamsoftware lets other hosts do the mx lookups, and feed the zombies
with the target email addresses and the ip where to send the spam to.
This way the zombies do not need to do mx lookups when they spam.
Thus, if you move a domain to a different mx, the old one will still
be hammered with spam for the moved domain.

I'll bet your are using fast_spamassassin with qmail-scanner rather

is what you want to use instead.

Now I am using verbose_spamassassin, but it doesn't work... :-(
Ask on the qmail-scanner list

Hi,
I'm running spamd on it's own server with the following command line 
(under daemontools)

exec /usr/local/bin/spamd -q -x -m 10 --max-conn-per-child=20 -i 
206.123.6.18 -A 206.123.6.19,206.123.6.18,216.162.64.120 -u Spamd 2>&1
Try this as your daemontools run file for spamd:
#!/bin/sh
exec 2>&1
exec envuidgid spamd /usr/local/bin/spamd -q -x -u spamd -m10 \
-H /home/spamd --max-conn-per-child=20 -i 206.123.6.18 \
-A 206.123.6.19,206.123.6.18,216.162.64.120
That is: if /home/spamd is spamd's home directory.

Where is the JS/EXE test?
Also, what is UPPERCASE_25_50? 
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

You've sent a html file through spamassassin.
Spamassassin neeeds emails as input.
A header with to/from/subject/message-id ect headers,
and a body with the actual message.
Try feeding spamassassin actual emails, and you will get better results.

I do not want to start a flamewar, but I do wonder why you all opted
for ezmlm. It's working and all that, but as with any DJB software,
it just does not give a flying food about how things should be done,

paradigm on everyone that comes in touch with the software. Quite
frankly, this pisses me off.

Martin,
Who cares what software is being used ?
Adjust man, not that hard.
This is not quantum physics, maybe mutt has some features to help you
with the tough task of posting to this list ?

When relearning a false-positive as ham, I wonder whether it's

or does either call the other?
What does `spamassassin -r` do exactly? Revoking spam could be
a plethora of things.
Hi,
man spamassassin.

Can SA be configured not to write timestamps to log output ?

Not curretnly without a patch.  There is a bug or enhancement request open
on this exact subject in bugzilla, and I believe it includes a
user-submitted patch to add an option.  The patch will probably change form
(if it is applied at all) by the time it is applied to SA, but it might work
for your use.

Thanks, I'll look into it!

Changing log output in SA 3.0.0 ?

2004-10-10 Thread Niek
Hello,
I just migrated successfully from 2.64 to 3.0.0
I log SA with multilog.
Multilog adds its own time stamp infront of every line.
I've noticed that SA 3 now also adds a time stamp in UTC format
to every log line.
Can SA be configured not to write timestamps to log output ?
Regards,
Niek Baakman
