Copy the default database file to /var/lib/clapf/data/p/pete > cp tokens.sdb /var/lib/clapf/data/p/pete ... er, my installation uses /var/lib/clapf/queue/p/pete/clapf.sdb and there is no specific datadir for the user under data/ . Have I done sth wrong? Now i'm confused about the role of the queue+data dirs... Spam marking (spamdrop) and filtering (maildrop) is working. > > 3. Fix the permissions: > chown -R pete /var/lib/clapf/data/p/pete > chown pete /var/lib/clapf/queue/p/pete afaik the above steps from the manual, aren't they? :) I've done this when i installed clapf, and now i'm trying to automate the process of creating clapf-specific data structures for the mail users. If too complicated to code it in C, then a callback to a shell script would do the job (calling a given script when spamdrop is asked to test a message for a previously unseen user). --- best, Peter
