I have a domain that is hosted by someone who runs SA on mail before it 
reaches my procmail setup and is tagged again by my system.  I've found 
that the double tagging was causing a problem with the NANAS reporting 
script I run. I stuck in a formail recipe in my .procmailrc file that 
renames any X-Spam- tags to Old-X-Spam-* thus not causing any conflicts 
with the script.  My SA setup was not removing the original tags.

it does? then its ok, i guess...


Since I don't run this type of setup myself, I can't say for sure
exactly what it does, but I can say that existing headers will not
affect scoring for a second run.

It will either remove the existing headers and add it's own, or rename
the existing headers so that they don't conflict.

If the server is adding markup to the subject line, that may be an
issue.

My best advice is simply: "Try it and see what happens"  :)


If the other server allows per-user rules, you could set the spam score 
impossibly high, or set an all_spam_to rule. You may get some SA headers, 
but your copy of SA should strip those out and the message would be 
otherwise untouched.

It will either remove the existing headers and add it's own, or rename
the existing headers so that they don't conflict.

If the server is adding markup to the subject line, that may be an
issue.

My best advice is simply: "Try it and see what happens"  :)

You would have to tell qmail not to invoke SA for your messages.

But why is it a problem?  When you run SA on your server, it should
automatically remove the markup added by the other server.

how to configure SA to do nothing at all for one single user?

2006-01-18 Thread Mathias Homann
Hi,


i want spamassassin not to touch my mails at all.
server in question runs SA with mysql for user config.

reason: i fetch with fetchmail from there, and run my own SA on my own mail 
server.


how do i tell SA on the other server not to touch my mails at all?
SA is invoked from within qmail there.

bye,
[MH]
