Re: How to shut down

I know my SA works buy bayes doesnt. I get msgs 
marked as spam with score over 5.0 but i have never seen autolearn=spam or ham. 
I get only autolearn=no or autolearn=failed. Here is the question: after i run 
sa-learn --clear and lets say that in my conf file i hava bayes min ham and spam 
learnset to 10(deafult 200). Does this mean that until i feed sa with spam 
and ham 10 of each at least it will not use bayes ?or it means that it won't use 
bayes until it has at least in its database and its learning from every single 
msg marked as spam ??

  Michael,
  
  For me, the 
  quickest way to get Bayes going is with auto_learn. (NOTE: you have to 
  have your other rules working pretty well for this to be effective.) I 
  use:
  
  bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam 
  0.0bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 
  12.0bayes_auto_learn 
   
  1
  
  Emails 
  scoring below zero (mostly outboundor whitelisted mail) are learned as 
  ham; emails scoring over 12 are learned as spam. On our gateway (10,000 
  messages per day) I can re-train Bayes from scratch in an hour or so. 
  Then I feed it any false negatives to learn as spam, and any false positives 
  withhigh Bayes scores as ham. The latter case is pretty 
  rare.
  
  I never 
  feed large batches to sa-learn, and since I'm running SA under MailScanner the 
  Bayes rebuilds are automatic.
  
  Good 
  luck

What is the best way to feed the bayes with spam considering that there is 
no mail kept at the server? All users download their mail and thats 
it.The spamassassin is marking spamsover 5.0 
butwhenit wants to autolearn it says failed(I assume that

The whole thing is that yesterday i did

I`m runing RH 9.2 with postfix and spamassassin 3.0.4. I know i can kill 
processes but every time i try to kill spamd its still there. Then when 
i try service spamd stop it gives me a msg that INET socket is already 
running. I thought if i stop spamassassin competly from running maybe 
the mail will work fast again. I have only about 20 email account on the 
server and 20 domain aliases so there is not too much traffic at all. I 
have non stop stuff coming tom y server for the accounts that are not 
here and i know this is slowing it down a bit but at this time is runnng 
very poorly.

Yes.

Of course it may not work well with only 20 messages to look at, which is
why the 200 limit was picked.

Look at /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin (at least on the Linux I am using ). 

/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin  start - starts it up manually
/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin stop -manually shuts it down
/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin restart - cycles it ( off then on again) to pick up changes to config files

Remove /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin if you do NOT want it to start on system boot.

RE: How to shut down

2005-07-12 Thread Pierre Thomson



Michael,

For me, the 
quickest way to get Bayes going is with auto_learn. (NOTE: you have to 
have your other rules working pretty well for this to be effective.) I 
use:

bayes_auto_learn_threshold_nonspam 
0.0bayes_auto_learn_threshold_spam 
12.0bayes_auto_learn 
 
1

Emails 
scoring below zero (mostly outboundor whitelisted mail) are learned as 
ham; emails scoring over 12 are learned as spam. On our gateway (10,000 
messages per day) I can re-train Bayes from scratch in an hour or so. Then 
I feed it any false negatives to learn as spam, and any false positives 
withhigh Bayes scores as ham. The latter case is pretty 
rare.

I never feed 
large batches to sa-learn, and since I'm running SA under MailScanner the Bayes 
rebuilds are automatic.

Good 
luck

      Re: How to shut down 
  
  The whole thing is that yesterday i did 
  sa-learn spam with spam folder and today the server is runing very slowely 
  now. Emails from to local users take about 3 hours to deliver. I`m runing 
  RH 9.2 with postfix and spamassassin 3.0.4. I know i can kill processes 
  but every time i try to kill spamd its still there. Then when i try 
  service spamd stop it gives me a msg that INET socket is already running. 
  I thought if i stop spamassassin competly from running maybe the mail will 
  work fast again. I have only about 20 email account on the server and 20 
  domain aliases so there is not too much traffic at all. I have non stop 
  stuff coming tom y server for the accounts that are not here and i know 
  this is slowing it down a bit but at this time is runnng very 
  poorly.

That might be a little overkill though it does 
the job ;-)

Stopping runningthings on *nix platforms 
is generally done by killing them, along withtheir children. "man 
kill" will teach you how. Programs that start when during boot usually 
have special scripts to both start and stop them, your best option is to 
use them. Where they live depends on your platform and distribution, use 
the supplied documentation, the man command and google to find out 
exactly where. If you don't want it to run at all at bootup, disable the 
script (various ways of doing that).

Kind Regards,
Sander Holthaus

PS: Never turn on things for which you don't 
know how to turn them off.

  Unplug the power to the 
  server.
  
  If that fails, I assume you would need to 
  contact the person that set it up. You sysadmin could allow all your 
  email to come thru without being scanned. 
  
  I hope that helps,

Doctor? Database Consultant? Er, you should know better, Robert. {o.o}

chkconfig spamassassin off

Do not remove the file from init.d, ever. Nor is it safe generally
speaking to remove the rcX.d/SMMspamassassin files. It's best to use
the proper configuration tools.

And - this particular advice is something I know works on Mandrake 10.1
and all RedHat releases I've used as well as the FC4 I am using. Your
approach is rather ham handed for a professional, doncha think?

Look at /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin (at least on the Linux I am using 
).

/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin  start - starts it up manually
/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin stop -manually shuts it down
/etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin restart - cycles it ( off then on again) 
to pick up changes to config files

Remove /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin if you do NOT want it to start on 
system boot.
