Well
met,
Just activated
SpamAssassin on my website (by my web hosting provider) and wanted to do some
simple tests which I read from the Wiki site and FAQ. When it didn't run I
opened a ticket with my provider and he said he didn't support it and I needed
to find help else where. So here I am. Right now, I'm just trying some simple
tests to get my Aliases/Forwarders (which get sent through my site) and
forwarded onto my ISP providers email account.
i.e. a public email
[EMAIL PROTECTED] would get
forwarded onto my local isp provider at verizon, or comcast depending on who I
have for a particular month, so that way I don't have to change my email every
month.
So for my test, I
set up the following basic local rules in ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs
file.
I assume this would
take any email with the word spam in the BODY or test in SUBJECT and rewrite the
SUBJECT with the new HEADER. But for some reason it does not appear to
be working.
body LOCAL_DEMONSTRATION_RULE /spam/
score LOCAL_DEMONSTRATION_RULE 6.0
describe LOCAL_DEMONSTRATION_RULE This is a simple test rule
header LOCAL_DEMONSTRATION_SUBJECT Subject =~ /\btest\b/i
score LOCAL_DEMONSTRATION_SUBJECT 2
required_score 5
rewrite_header subject * Rated SPAM: Junk This! *
Does it not work for
Aliases/Forwarders? Do you have to have a special Client? I am using BAT by
RitLABs, and/or Webbrowser.
Thanks!
