The way it works is that Amavis uses SpamAssassin routines to score the mail and then uses its own settings to decide what to do with the mail based on the SA score. /etc/mail/spamasassin/local.cf is the main settings file for SA (along with other stuff in that directory). This tells SA how to process the mail. /etc/amavisd.conf is the settings file for Amavis. It tells Amavis what to do with the mail that SA has processed. Anything having to do with rules and plugins is done with the SA configuration files. Anything having to do with required scores and message markup/rejection is done with the Amavis config file. Note that these directories may be slightly different depending on your distribution and installation method. -- Bowie

Re: OS X Server spam still getting through :-(
OK, but isn't spamd the settings file for spamassassin? How does spamassassin know how to work if spamd is not used when amavis is doing the routing? And if spamassissin is still the anti-spammer where do I tell it that it's not doing SA is a really big bunch of perl modules that process one mail message at a time. spamassassin is simply a perl wrapper script that will cause all of these modules to come into existance and filter exactly one message. Amvis-New, and several other tools, are also either written in perl or can call perl modules directly. So what Amvis-New does is it internally instantiates all of the perl modules that comprise the guts of spamassassin. It then takes a mail message, hands it to the SA modules, tells the modules to do their thing, and then pulls the result back out of the modules. It looks at the result (spam/not spam and the hit level) compares that to Amvis' internal setting for spam level, and based on that decides whether to send the original message through and discard the SA result, or whether to discard the original and use the SA result. Now, instantiating all of the perl modules that make up SA is a resource-consuming activity, and if you have a lot of mail it will eat your server alive. So spamc and spamd came into existance. Spamd is a perl script that instantiates an instance of SA as a server of sorts. You can pass it a mail message, it will process it and return the results to you. But it keeps the SA instance around to process another message, just like Amvis is doing internally. Spamc is the client that passes a mail message to spamd and gets the results back. The end result in this case is you would either be using spamc/spamd, or you would be using Amvis-New, but typically not both. In either case you are using the perl modules that comprise SA, but they are instantiated in different processes. SA uses a number of configuration files, and they can live in several places. There are two main default locations, but these locations can be overridden by passing paths to SA when it is instantiated. These locations contain a number of *.cf files and several *.pre files. There might also be some user_prefs files around. Most of the pre and cf files are part of the SA install and contain the stock rules and settings. There is local.cf and possibly some others that contain the local tuning settings. Typcailly when installing SA you need to look at the *.pre files that contain LoadPlugin lines, and make sure that the ones you want are uncommented. Many tests will be disabled if the plugins that implement them are commented out. Then you also need to set up some basic configuration in local.cf. That will configure SA itself. As you have already found though, Amvis itself has some configuration lines that ALSO control how SA will work in that environment. I suspect many of these options are equivalent to the command line options on spamd. So the long answer to your question is there are several places to look. The main ones will be local.cf, *.pre, and whatever settings Amvis has. Loren
Re: OS X Server spam still getting through :-(
Do this stats from our server give you (or anyone else) any clue about whats causing spam to get through? http://65.170.183.59:16080/amavis-stats/ This can only be a guess without more data. However it is obvious your mail volume is up greatly in the past two months, and the spam detection rate is also down. Now your previous volume indicates that something like 80% of the mail is ham. I don't know if that is true, or if SA has been missing 50% of the spam all along. In any case SA is now only catching about 50% of what it was before, and probably a bunch of that increased mail volume is also spam. Assuming no other system changes, this tells me that the makeup of the spam has changed and your SA hasn't kept up with those changes. The two major changes in spam recently have been a huge increase in stock spams, and a huge increase in image spams, most of which are also stock spams. The stock SA rules aren't real good at catching either of these. Some addon rulesets from www.rulesemproium.com will catch a good many of the stock (and other) spams quite well. There is a new OCR plugin for SA, FuzzyOCR, that is still somewhat experimental, but the few dozen people using it are really happy with the results for the most part. It is a little bit of work to install because it requires a number of pieces to work. The rulesemporium rules are easy to install. You might also have some other problems with your configuration and trust paths that could really be hurting SA's detection rate. We can't tell that without seeing some actual hit information from a few mails that made it through. Loren

Re: OS X Server spam still getting through :-(
In the meantime ere is the mail I got based on your reply!

One of its unfortunate effects for debugging is that it doesn't actually include the mail output from SA if SA decides that it isn't spam. So we have lost all indications of which rules hit and what didn't hit on the mail, and are only left with Amvis' indication that the mail was in fact scanned. There is a way to change the amvis config to get around this, but I'm not an Amvis person and can't help you. You could probably find it with considerable effort searching the archives, but someone else that knows amvis will likely respond soon. What sort of spams are making it through? Stock spams? Or just all the usual stuff? You may not be running any addon rule sets, and SA out of the box isn't as good as it could be against stock spams. Loren

Assuming you also restarted amvis so it will see the change, you should now be getting some more headers in your mail messages. You should see headers similar to the following in a typical non-spam mail: X-Spam-Virus: No X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.4 (2006-07-25) on morticia.wizardess.wiz X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-95.6 required=4.6 tests=BAYES_50,DK_POLICY_SIGNSOME, FM_NO_STYLE,HELO_EQ_DSL,HOST_EQ_DSL,HTML_10_20,HTML_FONT_BIG, HTML_MESSAGE,SPF_PASS,USER_IN_WHITELIST autolearn=disabled version=3.1.4 From the above you can see which tests hit on the mail. By implication you can see what tests are running, and possibly which rules you have loded on the system. You can also detect some configuration errors that can lead to spam leaking through. When you see some of these for a spam that leaks through, post the full thing including the headers and body. I have a hunch you may not be running network tests, and either aren't running Bayes or it is mistrained. It is possible you have a problem with the trust path, since that is a common misconfiguration. We will be able to tell that from the headers. Loren
