[AMaViS-user] Amavis/SpamAssassin/Postfix Problem
koie...@aeneas.net
I started a couple months ago learning linux and have made huge progress so
far and one of the projects I wanted to do was to build a mail gateway server
in front of my exchange server to filter mail. Well I found this excellent
guide (http://gentoo-
wiki.com/HOWTO_Spam_Filtering_with_Gentoo,_Postfix,_Amavis) that basically did
exactly what I wanted. I followed it step by step and then had to do a little
troubleshooting to get it working just exactly right. Currently I have it
receiving mail, running through clamAV, and then relaying it on to my exchange
server and it works great. Symantec on my exchange server has not caught a
single virus since I've started passing the mail thought the gateway, clamAV
is doing a great job. The problem with the setup is that I have no idea what
spamassassin is doing to my mail. I cant find anywhere in the log file that
its detecting spam, I've tried all sorts of guides I found googling to modify
my amavisd.conf and my local.cf and none of them seem to have any effect.
Basically all I'm wanting to do is get amavis scanning the mail with
spamassassin and adding whatever score it gives the mail to the header and
flag the subject with Possible Spam if the score is over a certain value. I'm
using syslog-ng as my system logger, can anyone instruct me with what settings
I need to check to turn more logging on so that I can see spamassassin
working. What settings do I need to check? Are there any webpages you guys can
send me to in order to find a solution to my problem?
Thanks,
Koie Smith

run "amavisd debug" to see if spamassassin is being found and loaded.
Run "amavisd debug-sa" to get detailed reports of what spamassassin is doing.
Tag/kill settings are set in the amavisd.conf file. See the descriptions for
$sa_tag_level_deflt = 3; # add spam info headers if at, or above that level
$sa_tag2_level_deflt = 5; # add 'spam detected' headers at that level
$sa_kill_level_deflt = 7; # triggers spam evasive actions
The subject is modified only if the recipient domain is listed in
@local_domains_maps.
"amavisd debug" will tell you if it's matching or not.
