Some questions...
I've been running Postfix+Procmail+Amavisd-new+SA for a while now...
Since setting up the server, I've set up PostfixAdmin and a couple of
virtual domains (for myself and friends).
Right now I'm running SA through procmail (spamd/c), and I'd like to
switch over to running through Amavisd-new with a MySQL backend.
Searching for HOWTOs has been disheartening and the HOWTOs seem to very
lamely go "Oh I just loaded Spamassassin..." instead of any real *meat*
to the article.
So my questions are:
1) How many nights/weekends am I going to sacrifice trying to get SA to
work with a MySQL backend along with importing the old user_prefs? Where
can I find decent documentation for this switch?
Hm i dunno about user_prefs since i dont use them.
Importing bayes to mysql is extremely easy. just do a sa-learn --export
and switch to mysql and issue a sa-learn --import or something like
that... that's it.
its in the howto
2) Does anyone run Procmail on their virtual accounts? If so, could you
point me in the right direction? This is something where the results on
Google have been less than stellar :-/
Sorry cant help u with that. i am using courier
3) Running SA through Amavisd-new is probably going to hurt. A lot.
(performance/memory-wise) Any suggestions on how to make this less-painful?
no it's not going to hurt, some even claim loading SA through
amavisd-new is better than spamd (see the amavisd-new faq)
The upside of amavisd-new is you can easily add a virus scanner or two
in the process...

ps: next time open a new thread instead of hijacking another pretty much
unrelated one
