Re: Kernel Module?

Any one out there using an AOpen 32x12x48x CDRW? Can you please tell me what kernel module it uses? I installed that model drive last week, on a system running rh7.2 I didn't need to play with kernel modules at all. The only thing i did was insert the 'append=' line into /etc/lilo.conf and

I've heard of it, but never used it. Can you give the list the skinny on how it interacts with the flow of mail? Does spamassassin sit before or after your MTA? or does it bolt on similar to a squid redirector? I'm specifically asking about SMTP received mail rather than pop/imap/fetchmail.

I've been running it for a while, only had 1 or 2 false positives, a number of spam's that have escaped detection (but not that many). Last month spamassassin + razor trapped over 2,000 spams for me. It is definately worth spending the time setting up. :D On Thu, 2002-05-23 at 11:56, Nick
