Hello again,

Trying to install sa produces a conflict with indimail procmail as that's a sa dependency. What to do?

Trying via yum.

Should I just ignore it?

Thanks.

ignore it. procmail is not used by indimail internally. So you can
force the sa installation

I also noticed the offending procmail package is coming from your indimail repo.

The exact error:

Transaction check error:
file /var/indimail/etc from install of procmail-3.22-70.2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package indimail-1.9.1-68.2.x86_64

Which means I have made included /var/indimail/etc in the procmail
spec file. Will correct it.
You can use the --disablerepo option to yum
yum --disablerepo=home:indimail ... ...

I have corrected the rpm spec file for procmail and initiated the
build. This error will go away when the build completes. Thanks for
pointing this out

how do i properly interpret this:

echo "path_to_spamassassin_spamc_program -E -U sock -d host -p port \
-u user"

is my spamc is: /usr/bin/spamc
with spamd running as user: root
on 127.0.0.1:783

?

i presume: /usr/bin/spamc -E -d 127.0.0.1 -p 783 -u <unknown part???>

what's the correct user? Thanks.


Thanks.

nvm, found this to work just fine:

# echo "/usr/bin/spamc -E -d 127.0.0.1 -p 783" >
/service/qmail-smtpd.25/variables/SPAMFILTER

-u option is needed if you have per user spam configuration. In your
case this is not required.
