checkvirus.pl currently returns a 22 code, 16 to stop the message process, and 6 to reject the message. I've altered the script to put the return code in its own logs, as a quick test to see what it was supposed to be returning. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but when I run xmail in debug mode

If you have php installed, cut and paste this into a file. You'll have to do a bit of tailoring to your spamassassin call scripts to get it to use one file, or the php script to read many files, but it will give you a total breakdown of what has come into your mailserver and how spamassassin hand

Spamassassin, with a little tweaking, has cut the amount of spam my users have received. With no other filtering, we are correctly tagging about 80% of spam. Here's a couple months stats. SPAM: 5501 out of 24608 (22.35 percent) NOT SPAM: 13157 out of 24608 (53.47 percent) UNDETERMINED: 5950

I've put together similar networks, but just for clarifications sake, what exactly are you trying to accomplish? Do you want to: 1) Use Xmail as a gateway for your exchange server? 2) Use your exchange server as a gateway for Xmail? 3) Have your exchange server forward certain email addresses to
