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,
Hi George. You seem to have a similar setup as I have here. I found
www.postfixvirtual.net most useful! Do have a look there.
I just had a 12 hour fight to get all running again after a upgrade from
Mandriva 2008.0 to 2008.1. That should have been trivial but I had all
sort of issues with amavisd missing perl modules. Well, finally solved
that one again.
