Transfer Spamassassin Settings To New Setup
May 11, 2009
My new server is set up and running fine but on the test account email I am getting a lot of spam again. I know spamassissin needs to "learn" but I don't want to go through that again.
Assuming I just need to copy my "experienced" spamassassin files over to the new server, what files need to be copied to give my new set up the same spam protection as the old?
Where does spamassassin store what its "learned"?
I am running CentOS and Cpanel

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 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...

As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.
What I'm looking for:
- linux hosting
- hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains
- at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs
- each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz)
- maildir
- spamassassin
- php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8
- suexec apache would be nice

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.

I have learnt it is harder to setup than I initially expected (since I have just moved from a shared hosting service). I am in need of some help setting up my DNS servers, as I am very confused. Here is most of the info I know:
1) I am running HyperVM
2) I've installed LXAdmin
3) I own the domain (purchased from xeodomains.com) runemart.com
4) My VPS hostname is: vps.runemart.com
5) I know my IP
6) My host has said:
'For VPS customers that have a HyperVM login you can now host forward DNS on the DNS servers rdns1.vaserv.com (US)rdns2.vaserv.com (UK'
And I am unsure what this means/how to do it.
I am not sure if I need some more information to set up my DNS, however I am sure that I can get it if I do.
Now, my questions begin. Firstly, I need to point my domain - runemart.com - somewhere. I believe I need to set up my DNS via HyperVM or LXAdmin so that they are something like: ns1.runemart.com and ns2.runemart.com. Though, is this correct? Am I able to set up my own actual domain name servers, or will my domain have to point at something like rdns2.vaserv.com?
If anyone can assist me in this I would be very greatful, as I am waiting to get my website running. This is all I will ask for now, I will take it one step at a time =).

here to install spamassassin but however have a few questions as im new to doing technical things in ssh.
[url]
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.

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 need to configure Spamassassin to not check outgoing mails
So I need to check only mails that are hosts on my mail server, but mails which relay not to be checked.
configuration of Spamassassin in exim:
warn spam = nobody
warn message = X-Spam_score: $spam_score
X-Spam_score_int: $spam_score_int
X-Spam_bar: $spam_bar
X-Spam_report: $spam_report
condition = ${if eq {$acl_m1}{local_to_check_spam} {yes}{no}}
!condition = ${if eq {$acl_m0}{local_to_check} {yes}{no}}
Maybe it's need just one line in Spamassassing local.cf?

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.

The problem I currently have is that all e-mails tagged by SpamAssassin as spam are deleted even though they are supposed to be moved to a different "probably-spam" file. In addition, I'd like to use the spamc + spamd configuration and I'm not using it now.
I tested that procmail is installed on my CentOS 5 server that's also using sendmail.
yum remove spamassassin // In case it is pre-installed. It was the last time I did this.
// Download it at spamassassin.apache.org:
wget [url]
tar xvfz Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3.tar.gz
cd /Mail-SpamAssassin-3.2.3
perl build/check_dependencies // Checks which perl module dependencies are missing that need to be installed before proceeding. Then install them
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
Upload your own spamassassin/local.conf to /etc/mail/spamassassin
Code:
# This is the right place to customize your installation of SpamAssassin.
#
# See 'perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf' for details of what can be
# tweaked.
#
# Only a small subset of options are listed below
#
###########################################################################
# Add *****SPAM***** to the Subject header of spam e-mails

#
# report_safe 1
# Set which networks or hosts are considered 'trusted' by your mail

Make /home/tero world executable (chmod 751)
Upload.procmail to /home/tero // My e-mail user's name.
Code:
:0fw: spamassassin.lock
* < 256000

# Mails with a score of 13 or higher are almost certainly spam. Let's delete them.

{
:0 fhw

}
I figured that this might be a permissions problem but what I can do without risking security?

It seems that SA is not so good at learning because I have seen email from people to whom I have emailed tens of times considered as SPAM by SA.
Is it possible to make SA to whitelist every email address I send an email to?
