Hi all, up till now I ran spamassassin according to the usual examples to tag my incoming messages. The resulting acl-statements in the data-acl look like this:
warn message = X-Spam-Flag: YES
condition = ${if <{$message_size}{250k}{1}{0}}
spam = exim
warn message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
condition = ${if <{$message_size}{250k}{1}{0}}
spam = exim:true
Not quite unusual, I guess. ;-)
However, when spamassassin is unavailable incoming messages pass
untagged, which is quite undesirable.
I consider changing my ACL to something like this:
warn message = X-Spam-Flag: YES
condition = ${if <{$message_size}{250k}{1}{0}}
spam = exim
defer condition = ${if \
and{{<{$message_size}{250k}} \
{ def:spam_score}}{1}{0}}
warn message = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
condition = ${if <{$message_size}{250k}{1}{0}}
spam = exim:true
This should cause a temporary defer if my spamassassin is unavailable.
Any comments? Do I miss something obvious?
Basically, I "just" have to gurantee every message is tagged accordingly
before delivered to the users inbox. So an alternative would to to
accept the message and have it scanned later, but I definitly don't like
setups where I have to pipe messages into spamc or something like that,
they cause way too many headaches.
