similar to: Disabling Spamassassin on outbound email

I am following this tutorial: https://www.linuxbabe.com/redhat/spamassassin-centos-rhel-block-email-spam. I followed the steps in "Move Spam into the Junk Folder". When I send an email from a blacklisted e-mail address, I get a bounce e-mail from my e-mail server. Here is what is in my spamass-milter file: EXTRA_FLAGS="-m -r 8 -R NO_SPAM -i 127.0.0.1 -g sa-milt --

I'm trying to clarify the various ways in which I could set up Postfix + Dovecot + SpamAssassin under CentOS-7, and I'd welcome any comments on the following remarks. As far as I can see there are 3 standard ways of setting this up: 1. Use amavisd 2. Use dovecot + pigeonhole/sieve 3. Use spamass-milter At present I'm following (2), but am thinking of going over to (1), since

I've just set up a new mailserver using Centos5.2 (sendmail+clamav-milter+spamass-milter). I'm using the spamass-milter package from rpmforge (spamass-milter-0.3.1-1.el5.rf). I notice that the default setup is to run it as root. I set up my previous mailserver on Centos4, and I can't remember if I did anything special, but on that machine it runs as user "sa-milt". Is

Gents, I have added the following to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and rebuilt it trying to control spam. I still get about 25 spam messages a day. Is there something else that can help control spam?

Sorry, not a direct CentOS question, but I know there's a lot of experienced users on this list...I'm using CentOS with sendmail and spamassassin. I've got it configured with spamass-milter and it is working correctly. However, I was expecting to be able to reject mail that is marked as spam, not just deliver it as usual. Anyone know if it can be done and how? I know a milter

I wish to add options to sendmail INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamass-milter/spamass-milter.sock, F=T, T=C:5m;S:4m;R:4m;E:5m')dnl dnl MAILER(cyrusv2)dnl INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`greylist', `S=local:/var/run/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock') define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT', `j, {if_addr}') define(`confMILTER_MACROS_HELO', `{verify},

Hah!!! This list is just too calm and mundane. The only thing we argue about is the ''announce'' list vs. the ''user'' list. ;) So, it''s springtime! I''m seeing all the regularly scheduled ''oil'' threads on my motorcycle lists and thought "oh what the heck, lets get the ''oil'' thread going over on the CentOS

I have a problem getting spamd and sendmail (both stock CentOS4 rpms) to work together on a couple of smtp relay machines. This is clearly a configuration issue and no doubt revolves around my lack of comprehension of how this is to work. Basically, the setup consists of two frontend public smtp transports that redirect all email through a firewall to an internal imap server for final

I've everything running fine under CentOS-7, as far as I can tell, except that spam is not being diverted to my spam folder ~/Maildir/.Spam . I'm running postfix + spamass-milter + spamass-milter-postfix + dovecot (+ spamassassin), and spam is being duly marked before ending in my inbox . As far as I can see, the current advice is to leave filtering to dovecot, using the

Hello all, I finally got spamass-milter and clamav-milter running, but have one error I've not been able to determine what is happening. From the log entry I see this line: SYSERR(sa-milt): hash map "Alias0": unsafe map file /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied: 39 Time(s) any pointers here? The 2nd item is with yum. I attempted to update, and wound up getting a fail on a

Hi, I'm currently busy with a substiution of my current mail server. I'm currently using * Clam-SMTP and * SpamAssassin to fight Spam. I wonder if it is worth implementing AmaViS with SpamAssassin backend instead and also using AmaViS to speak to clamd directly. But I more and more wonder wether AmaViS is even worth it?! It currently looks to me as if AmaViS is eating LOTS of

I've recently switched to using spamassassin via a sendmail milter, rather than using procmail to invoke it. This means that I get a number of messages appearing in my maillog, and then being reported by logwatch as unmatched entries. An example of such a messages is: Feb 27 04:33:09 quail sendmail[24780]: p1R4X46P024780[2]: URIBL blacklist\n\t* [URIs: tablettoxicspillsrx.ru]\n\t* 1.5

Hello all, I've been googling my brains out since yesterday looking for up-to-date information on this matter, and have found information that is anywhere from 15 to 5 years old. I'd really like some information that much more up to date on the subject. Specifically configuring Sendmail SMTP authentication (_no smart host stuff_). I've got Sendmail 8.14 installed on a CentOS 7.3

Hello fellow CentOS-users, on the net there are lots of Spamassassin related HOWTOs - describing how to create a shell script for Postfix and how to install Spamassassin and start its spamd daemon - step by step. Additionally antivirus setups are described... But I have a strong feeling, that this is unneeded on CentOS 6 - because there are already preconfigured stock packages for postfix and

I've been running sendmail since the beginning of my online time. 1. Did I see that postfix can run sendmail milters? 2. If so, did I read that postfix can run these separately for inbound vs. outbound? 3. Can it run like a rbl blacklist on inbound and not outbound? 4. If the above is true, does this require separate configurations of postfix or is it already set to allow this out of the

Whats a good antispam solution? I am using sendmail and dovecot 1.1. I came across dovecot's antispam plugin, but it seems it does not support 1.1 yet. I am also looking for something non-perl based. I am already doing some greylisting with sendmail milter. Any other good suggestions? If not, I guess I might have to downgrade back to 1.0 dovecot. Thanks
