I have a couple of questions about setting up the spamassassin module from Gordon Messmer's pythonfilter to work with Courier.
The config in /etc/pythonfilter-modules.conf for spamassassin is: [spamassassin.py] spamcPath = '/usr/bin/spamc' maxMsgSize = 512000 username = 'spamuser' rejectScore = 10 I'm using a MySQL database for spamassassin, which contains a userpref table. Can I assume that whatever the "username" is in this config is passed as a -u option to spamc and should correspond to a username in the userpref table on the spamd server? I've seen some discussion indicating that this should be set to "root", but there's no username "root" in the userpref table. Spamassassin preferences are indexed by email address in our virtual mail setup. Second question: Spamassassin recognizes the value of the "value" field in the userpref table corresponding to a preference field value of "required_score" for a username passed to spamd as the reject score for that username. How does this relate to the "rejectScore" configured in pythonfilter-modules.conf? Which value takes precedence? We could probably do with a bit more explanation in <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/courier-pythonfilter> (and in the package README) regarding the necessary setup for using pythonfilter to prefilter email using spamassassin. -- Lindsay Haisley | "UNIX is user-friendly, it just FMP Computer Services | chooses its friends." 512-259-1190 | -- Andreas Bogk http://www.fmp.com | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
