Please note -
Most systems that I'm familiar with nowadays have the users put spam
emails that manage to get past the filters into a special folder
(directory) so they can be examined, in order to make the spam filter
system more effective. In pursuit of that Idea, I've written urlx.
Urlx is designed to extract
I was told a while back that the best way to extract urls from emails
was to use code from SpamAssassin. Ok - Now, I need to do just that.
Any pointers? I've looked thru the code in SpamCopURI, but unless there
are some docs hidden somewhere I can't even figure out the entry point.
Are there

I can't get the imgeinfo plugin to load with SA 3.17?
I put this in v310.pre
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::ImageInfo
The Imageinfo.pm file is in the same directory as other PM files that
are being correctly found, and When I try a spamassassin --lint, I get
[5522] warn: plugin: failed
For what it's worth, on the system here I have a special directory on
the server set up, and when the users get a spam message they do a
'save as ascii text file' to that directory. sa-learn runs thru that
directory every half hour. Just a thought.

Does anyone have a rule to chech the envelope To: against the header

but it doesn't apply here, and almost half of the spam that gets thru
everything else would get stopped by that.

Just for the record and FYI - I found the cause of at least one major
problem, and possibly more. SuSE 9.1 ships with the BerkeleyDB built
incorrectly!
As shipped, It will only support DB_PRIVATE operations, which causes
problems with amavisd and possibly nmdb and postfix.
You need to recompile
