-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On our system, we have about 40% of inbound email that gets delivered to real mailboxes, and the remaining 60% are addresses that get forwarded to customers regular mailboxes, such as @aol.com, @gmail.com, etc. My long term goal is to be able to do lax spam checks for email that will be locally delivered and very VERY strict spam checks for forwarded mail.
What does this achieve? I mark as spam when the email has a score of 5. Currently, I also block at the smtp level whent he email has a spam score. I want to change this behavior slightly. I want to do rejection at the smtp level with a spam score of somewhere around 5 for forwarders and somewhere around 10 for locally delivered email. This allows me to accept marginal mail for local users and deliver to their Spam folder, while still rejecting for forwarders. (This keeps me from running afoul of AOL's system, where users don't seem to understand that "Report as Spam" is not the same as "Delete".) I was thinking there were a few ways that I could do this: 1) Configure spamass-milter to do an LDAP lookup to see if the email address exists as a posixAccount objectClass or account objectClass or $objectClass. This seems a bit too narrow though. 2) Configure spamass-milter to call a script which exits with a 0 for success or any other value for failure. The script would have to do some sort of LDAP or PAM lookup to classify the email address. This seems relatively easy, but is laced with security issues in calling anything external. 3) Build my own milter which can do some sort of LDAP or PAM lookup and insert a custom header so that spamassassin can then adjust scoring. This implies that it must occur before spamass-milter in the chain of milters. 4) Build my own milter which can do some sort of LDAP or PAM lookup and take action based on the spamassassin score in the headers. This implies that it must occur after spamass-milter in the chain of milters. 5) Other suggestions? - -- Regards...
