Hello all. My spamass-milter INPUT_MAIL_FILTER config in sendmail is as follows:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin',`S=local:/var/run/spamass.sock,F=T, ...)dnl Yet when I test this feature by manually shutting down spamassassin (service spamassassin stop), I still receive messages. Shouldn't they be temp failed? What I see in the logs is 3 failed attempts by spamass-milter (spamc) to connect to spamassassin (spamd) after which sendmail delivers the message to the recipient: May 23 13:57:43 mail spamc[10285]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused May 23 13:57:44 mail spamc[10284]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#3 of 3): Connection refused May 23 13:57:44 mail spamc[10285]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#2 of 3): Connection refused May 23 13:57:45 mail spamc[10284]: connection attempt to spamd aborted after 3 retries May 23 13:57:45 mail spamc[10285]: connect(AF_INET) to spamd at 127.0.0.1 failed, retrying (#3 of 3): Connection refused May 23 13:57:46 mail sendmail[10287]: STARTTLS=client, relay=server.mydomain.local., version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=RC4-MD5, bits=128/128 May 23 13:57:46 mail sendmail[10287]: m4N3va6b010268: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=00:00:06, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=smtp, pri=127244, relay=server.mydomain.local. [10.1.1.2], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent ( <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Queued mail for delivery) I absolutely need to have all messages scanned for SPAM - too much of it in our domains! What can I do to rectify this issue? Server config: OS - Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 4 (Nahant) Sendmail - 8.13.1-2 spamass-milter - 0.3.1 spamassassin - 3.1.7 (2006-10-05) Perl - 5.8.5-12 Cheers, AK.
