Hi all,

I am trying to setup a mail server using postfix (virtual_mailboxes), spamassassin and dovecot, along with SQL where appropriate. From my research so far I realized that, for several reasons, it is required for me to use dovecot LDA instead of maildrop, local, procmail or other alternatives.

My configuration was working flawlessly, until spamassassin per-user configuration came to play. If I just wanted an MTA anti-spam gateway, I could directly call spamassassin via master.cf, or through some helper "content-filter-application" (like amavis or amavisd-new), and everything would work just fine (I tried and tested many such configurations with success). But when antispam per user preferences became my concern (Bayesian filters and classifier), I realized that spamd should be called by the LDA. With procmail this was a trivial issue, with dovecot-lda I was unable to find any solution on the web or other documentation.

So my question is as follows:
Is there a way to call spamc from dovecot-LDA (and/or dovecot-sieve), or is there an alternate way to do this for a site with virtual mailboxes configured with dovecot-lda?

Thank you all in advance,

regards,
