[AMaViS-user] Spamassassin autolearn via amavisd

[Sharma, Ashish]

Hi,

I have deployed amavisd for postfix.

The amavisd is used to scan mails via spamassassin and ClamAV.

I referred this link for setup: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd

I am using the default amavisd settings as specified in amavisd.conf

Here my question is does autolearn enabled for such setup for spamassassin by default?

I am getting following logs:

SpamControl: calling spam scanner SpamAssassin

What does the message 'autolearn=ham' means in the log.

Thanks

Ashish,

> does autolearn enabled for such setup for spamassassin by default?

Probably yes, as this is a SpamAssassin default when bayes is enabled.
It is controlled exclusively by the SA configuration setting
bayes_auto_learn in its .cf file, and is on by default.

Looks good, SpamAssassin reported that it has decided to learn the
message as ham, and that it successfully did so. The 'autolearn=...'
comes directly from SpamAssassin (its AUTOLEARN tag), amavisd just
passes this information to the log.
