RE: spamassassin question
I am assuming you are processing spamassassin before you tell sendmail to deliver. I use qmail so I can't really tell you how to make sure. At any rate: Otherwise go to /etc/spamassassin and edit the local.cf file and change the subject tag to what you want. If you change the required hits in this file it will set it for the entire system. Otherwise, just get the spamassassin webmin, it works really slick for administration. You do have to point it at your spamassassin install, ie, /etc/spamassassin/spamassassin -Original Message- From: Jacob Vallandingham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2004 12:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: spamassassin question I am trying to run spamassassin on an internal linux box with sendmail.

I know the content of the e-mails should be classified as spam and I've even changed the number of hits required to 1 and got no results. Does spamassassin have to be run on a public maiol server? Note that there is a difference between the different levels. At the first level, messages get the SPAM score in the header, at the second they get the spam header and _optionally_ a modified subject. At the third level, they are dropped. If you've set up your first level to 1 you should see a header like this: X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=1.0 tagged_above=0.4 required=1.0 tests=NO_COST This means that the message had a score of 1. As you can see, I add the score in the headers at 0.4 (level 1), at 1 messages are markes as spam (level 2).
