our system
fedora 4, qmail toaster, vpopmail, mysql.
thanks to all we have installed dspam 3.6.8 successfully.
we trained a global user -- "globaluser" using dspam_train tool as follows
we collected around 13600 spam emails and around 4700 good emails in two
seperate mailboxes for this
used the command
dspam_train globaluser path_to_spamfolder path_to_hamfolder
The spam emails were collected from a honeypot and the good emails were
collected from a bunch of good emails recieved by the email users on our server
which we tapped using qmail tap tool
Both the spam and ham emails have ***never*** been processed by dspam before
we then enabled the -- "globaluser" to apply to all the users on the server by
adding a line
to dspamhome/group file
globalgroup:classification:*globaluser
This is wrong. If you trained the spam using the user 'globaluser' then
your group definition should look like:
user:group-name:domain-to-which-all-users-belong, i.e. if users on your
system are '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (that's the address that appears in
their mail). So your group should look like:
globaluser:classification:*24x7server.net.
Now the problem that we face is as such
We get spam emails tagged as spam in the subject but the Header of the mail
shows
X-DSPAM-Result: Innocent
If you've built dspam with debugging, you can easily check this by
running a Debug: globaluser (dspam.conf).
