RE: [Sheflug] Spam filtering



Barrie,

Just out of curiosity, what qmail config changes did you make? Was it
simply a case of piping the incoming message to spamassassin (and if so,
how)?

The reason I ask is that I'm currently using courier at home, and have
just noticed that the combination of courier and fetchmail is leaving a
lot of what courier regards as syntactically incorrect envelopes on
Demon's POP3 mailstore (currently around 700 :-).

Although it's probably not the best way of doing it, I was planning on
ditching courier and reverting to qmail (which Ive not used for a couple
of years). The courier stuff is nice and spamassassin was a cinch to
install - all I did was change the maildrop config to pipe the data
through spamassassin as a filter before final delivery to the Maildir.
Qmail I'm not so certain about and I reckoned that asking someone who
already does it could save me an hour or so of research, especially if
qmail needs to be patched first!
