Hi,
My intension is to get spamassasin to process ALL the emails that pass through my sendmail,
even those forwarded on to external email addresses through /etc/mail/virtusertable...
IF YOU HAVE AN ANSWER AT THIS POINT, PLEASE JUMP IN AND TELL ME WHAT TO LOOK AT.
Otherwise...
I have sendmail working fine, a large virtusertable working fine, aliases working fine, ...
I don't currently use procmail, and don't think I want to. All my email goes into /var/spool/mail/*
After much web searching, I found out that the normal use of spamassasin is through procmail,
but I don't want to use this method because it would miss out all my virtusertable forwarding.
After a bit more web searching, I found:
http://www.snert.com/Software/milter-spamc/
which looks like it is exactly what I want - although it does not state if its processing happens
before or after virtusertable is applied ?
BUT, to use this milter-spamc, I need sendmail to be configured with the Milter API enabled,
and to build libmilter too.
So my question(s) are:
1) is sendmail with FC1.0 compiled with the Milter API enabled ?
2) if not, is there anything I need to consider in downloading the source and installing from
that - other than following the normal instructions ?
3) has anyone else used libmilter in FC1.0 - and any issues ?
4) does the Milter API process emails before or after /etc/mail/virtusertable ?
5) has anyone also used milter-spamc - and any issues ?
6) if there is a bigger advantage to using procmail (inplace of aliases and virtusertable), then
please let me know so I can switch to this method.
Thanks, John.
ps. if Fedora sendmail is not configured with the Milter API enabled - please can it be ?
As it is supplied without the source (I believe), would it be better to have this feature
enabled by default ?
