RE: Scanning aliases for spam

[Chris Santerre]

Yes... and here is the answer:   an alias can be a procmail script. So you send the email to this aliased procmail script, have it scanned, and depending on the outcome of the scan, proceed to forward to the real alias, or do something else with the spam.   Thanks, Chris Santerre SysAdmin and Spamfighter www.rulesemporium.com www.uribl.com -----Original Message----- From: Michael Fenimore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, October 15, 2006 4:32 PM To: users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: Scanning aliases for spam Hi. I hope this question isn't beyond the scope of this group or hasn't been answered already. I maintain a site that runs Majordomo v. 1.94.5. We have over 55 groups and close to 4800 members. Some of these groups have been in existence for a while and have found themselves in spammer databases. Spamd runs fine on a local user account, but does not scan any aliases from the /etc/aliases file. Is there a way to have this done? Or is it beyond SA capabilities?   TIA   Michael Fenimore SysAdmin/WebMaster GriefNet.org
