I need to clean up the .spamassassin directory for all the accounts on the server. The Bayes files are getting too big and causing mail handling issues.
How would I do that?
I assume this won't work - and don't want to try it until I hear a little feedback:
rm -f /home/*/.spamassassin/*bayes*
Basically, I need a command that will do what the above command looks like it would do - I just don't think the wildcards will work in that manner, and don't want to try it for fear of deleting items outside of the .spamassassin directory.
I'm running CentOS 5.3.x with cPanel/WHM - if it matters...
And feel free to suggest other spam blocking software - but we've gotten rather good at tweaking SA to get the job done. Just this annoyance of the bayes files growing continuously is a pain sometimes...
I have a problem with Parallels Plesk 12 Web Host Edition. In the dashboard, Plesk tells me that Spamassassin service is not running and not installed.
How to setting up it ? Is there a component, a service to buy, or do i have to configure it through SSH ?
I've had a VPS for a little over a month now, like with anything I guess hiccups are always apparent. But the VPS does starnge things even when I haven't changed anything...
For example I received an email from Watchdog, and noticed that DNS Server (BIND) and SpamAssassin is lways up and down... Thought people might have an idea as to why? Or if anyone has had these problems before?

We are using Plesk 11.5 with postfix MTA. Spamassassin is working fine for incoming mails and leaves outbound mails unchecked - as it should.
Now there is one of my domains whose mails are relayed to another server (using postfix transport tab; mail support for this domain is disabled in plesk). For the moment, these mails arrive without beeing checked and marked by spamassassin. How could I change this? I have tried to register an additional mail-handler like
Code:
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mail_handlers_control --add --priority=10 --executable=/usr/local/psa/handlers/hooks/spam --name=spam --enabled --queue=before-remote --mailname=relaydomain.de --type=recipient-domain --dont-preserve-on-restore --context=text
but this didn't have any effect so far.
If there is a direct way to enable spam-control for relay domains, Otherwise I could still access spamassassin via postfix' config-files, but how to use two different implementation of spamassassin at the same time.
The SpamAssassin bayes database has become ineffective on one of our servers and we want to wipe it and start fresh - how to do this on Plesk 11.5.30?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat steps can we take to improve SpamAssassin performance? I know this was talked about in older Plesk versions, but we may be able to do more now. What configurations can I do to stop more spam?

I am running Plesk 11.5.30 Update #44, Postfix 2.8.14 and Spamassassin 3.3.1 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6.5 server. I am looking to update the rules within Spamassassin. I have had a bit of a look and see that a crontab has been created but its a bash script with a comment saying it has been disabled by psa-spamassassin package (/etc/cron.d/sa-update).
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# This task was disabled by psa-spamassassin package
exit 0
Is there a reason why it has been disabled by Plesk? If I update the rules, will it break something?
I have recently added into Postfix RBLs to reduce the amount of SPAM my customers is getting and this is my next step in a list of things that I would like to change.
I noticed that my spamassassin wasn't running on my server. so I restarted the service from the plesk panel but got the following message:
Error: Unable to make action: Unable to manage service by spammng: spamassassin: unrecognized service
ERROR:spammng:Unable to start SpamAssassin service
('--start', 'spamassassin')
So I SSH'ed into my machine and saw that spamassassin wasn't running.
The I reinstalled spamassassin from the "add and remove product components", but that didn't change anything. Still the same error.
Installing Plesk Panel with Spamassassin on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS gives a significant error:
Restarting SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: No /usr/bin/perl found running; none killed.
server socket setup failed, retry 1: spamd: could not create IO::Socket::INET6 socket on [::1]:783: Cannot assign requested address

dpkg: error processing package sa-compile (--configure):
even though spamassassin (i.e. spamd) is not running. The usual suspects for the before mentioned error, being
a) differences in the name of the PIDFILE variable in /etc/default/spamassassin and /etc/init.d/spamassassin
b) directory and/or file location are not readable/writable
are not causing this specific installation bug. The work-arounds:
1 - not installing spamassassin (not an option)
2 - installing spamassassin and (afterwards)
change /etc/default/spamassassin, add the option "-4" to the line OPTIONS, resulting in the line: OPTIONS="--nouser-config -4 --username=popuser --daemonize --helper-home-dir=/var/qmail --virtual-config-dir=/var/qmail/mailnames/%d/%l/.spamassassin --create-prefs --max-children=5"
run plesk-installer or autoinstaller again ..Work-around 2 works fine, after reinstallation the /etc/default/spamassassin is as it should be (note that the added "-4" is not present anymore).
The before mentioned work-around suggests some error in the installation process, very likely to be an issue with the chronological order of installation of the various components. In theory, it can be excluded that this bug/issue is caused by psa-spamassassin and/or spamassassin (version 3.3.x) packages, even though some current spamassassin bugs are known: URL....I sincerely hope that Parallels Team can investigate and patch both of the bugs/issues.
I just migrated a bunch of domains from plesk 11.5. Everything appears to be working well however when examining the maillog, I am seeing some strange errors... In this example, the message was delivered and had the spamassassin stuff in the header.
spamd: handle_user unable to find user: 'jason@xxxxxxp.com'
I have one specific domain being to another SMTP server via Postfix transport_maps.
This works great, apart from Spam check not working anymore, Spamassassin is not being called for the domain.
Is there any configuration to have Spamassassin check email before it is routed via transport_maps?
When I set up spamassassin to store spam in the spam folder of my mailbox, it doesn't add any X-Sapm headers nor tags the subject. All I found so far was an old thread where a plesk employee stated that it will be fixed in 'a' future version.
I am on 11.5.30 Update #47.
The Plesk panel indicates that the Spam folder can be retrieved using an email client. We are using Outlook 2013 and can not figure out a way to make this happen. We can see the Spam folder using Webmail, but the contents never shows up in Outlook...

How i can do it ?
I'm running the latest port version on FreeBSD of Postfix, Spamassassin (Razor & Pryzor), ClamAV, and Amavisd-new. I haven't gotten any spam for a while. The 2-3 days including today i've been getting 10+ spams per day. This seemed to happen after the update of spamassasin recently.
Anyone else experiencing this? My rules are pretty quick, at spam-score "5" I reject the mail.
I installed SpamAssasin and set it up in DA, I also use Spam Filter option in DirectAdmin (DA).
The problem is that if someone send me an email which contains any adult word in the body and a regular subject then it will not go to the Spam box, but if that email contains any adult word in the subject and no matter the body has adult word or not it will go to Spam box.
How do i send all the emails contain adult word in body to Spam box?
i have Dovecot installed.
Hi i'm trying to use spamassassin from each user using .qmail from each mail user but i can't it dosen't works. Also i wish to know if i have any rule on spamassassin to check some words like sex viagra ,etc and if it's found it will delete it.

On step 3 of the tutorial, we are asked to change things in the /etc/exim.conf file, what is the proper command to navigate to this file and how to replace those text?
Quote:
The global spamassassin config file is in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
You'll want to make sure that you have the correct call to spamc in the spamcheck transport in your exim.conf:
transport_filter = /usr/bin/spamc -u ${lookup{$domain}lsearch*{/etc/virtual/domainowners}{$value}}
For the lines i quoted, im not sure what i have to do here and how to do it.
Lastly how do i know if im installing latest version of spamas and how to test weather it is working against spam?
some good hosts that use more than just SpamAssassin (SA) for their spam filtering?
For instance, MediaTemple uses the Cloudmark plug-in, which greatly improves the stopping of spam. SA out of the box is horrible; and yes, I realize that with some tweaking it "can" be good.
I am setting up spam assassin white list and it says I can put *@domain.com so does that mean it will white list everything from domain.com ?

Whitelist and blacklist addresses are now file-glob-style patterns, so friend@somewhere.com, *@isp.com, or *.domain.net will all work. Specifically, * and ? are allowed, but all other metacharacters are not. Regular expressions are not used for security reasons.
I have a server, SpamAssassin is installed but i disabled it, because i don't work with this, i'm getting a day about 1000 spam messages.
what to do to stop this?
Is there any way to define black lists for a specific domain?
Like, a file for each user: user1.cf, user2.cf.
And when that user receives email, Mailscanner will check server-wide filter AND domain specific filter.
Any advanced MS/SA users?
I am using cPanel 11 one of my Linux server with O.S. as Fedora core 4. For one of my websites I had enabled spam assassin a few days before. But now I want to disable it but not getting any option to do so.

home/username/.spamassassing
.Spamassassing directoy using much Space .
would you please let me know , what is that dirctory doing ?

(Specially : auto_whitelist)
I have a dedicated server. It is a Fedora Core 6. It came with "Plesk 30 domain license". However, this license of Plesk doesn't have SpamAssassin enabled. In order to get the license with SpamAssassin, it costs an extra $30 a month.
I believe SpamAssassin by default is in fact installed on the sever, but some of my users are reporting that they are getting Spam. How can I check is SpamAssassin is running? How do I configure SpamAssassin to filter spam on all the e-mail addresses that are created in Plesk?
I have SSH access to the server.
I want to setup Remote Spamassassin for Smartermail server. I want to the setup the spamassassin on a linux box. Can anybody help me with this as I am not getting any definitive guide for the same?
