Hi all

Our SPAM load went up to 100 megabytes (caught by spamassassin)
plus a whole lot slipping through, a week. This is for a
company of 25 people. I'm the poor sucker who has to check the
probably-spam folder once a week to make sure "real" mail doesn't
get caught by the filters.

So, we're moving to TMDA. Which meant moving from sendmail to
qmail. And all seems to be working fine, but my head is spinning.

I start qmail-start with |preline procmail, qmail-start starts
qmail-lspawn with |preline procmail. I also have fastforward
in /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-default.

Now this is where you hafta correct me if I'm wrong. qmail-lspawn
checks all the .qmail files before passing the mail on to procmail.
So, it never does pass it on to procmail, it passes it on to
fastforward. And fastforward passes it on to whatever mechanism
handles ~/.qmail-* <- This is where I'd like to know more, of course.
Why can't I put tmda in the second line of /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-
default? fastforward never gets there, looks like...

Anyway, and then ~/.qmail-default passes the message on to
tmda-filter. And /etc/tmdarc specifies that procmail should be used
for delivery. And the message ends up in /var/spool/mail.

I think.

But I'd like to know more details, please.

And now for my *next* question. This is all happening on a mail
swerver, with users smtp-ing mail into the box and popping it off.
And maybe I want to tag mail going out (i.e. local user (local
domain, not local-on-the-box) smtps message into box, qmail-rspawn
handles it). Message gets send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] How
do I intercept this message to pipe it through tmda?

Thanks!
Wouter
