You should be able to filter it, but you will also want to log it... that way you can nail the sob's and shut down their accounts. Whatevber solution you have will be crippled unless you know who it is - they will still waste resources and they won't stop cause they don't know who gets their spam anyways...
I did a patch to an older version of courer that added the authenticated user name to the message logs - you should do something similar - trap your spam and parse this information out - anyone guilty of sending more than X spam messages is subject to review. The danger of what you are trying in general is that false positives and how you handle them... how do you notify the sender their message was detected as spam and not delivered. m/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Systems Administrator Sent: Sunday, October 26, 2003 7:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [courier-users] Outgoing mail and SpamAssasin (courierfilter?) Hi all. I have two linked questions: 1. Am I right in understanding that the tool of choice for filtering *outgoing* mail is that documented in the courierfilter man page? 2. If so, has anyone got a script that works with courierfilter and SpamAssassin?
