Hi Folks,

I'ld also like to drop, bounce, whatever mail that has certain words in the subject, such as rolex, penis, viagra, etc.

I know I can do the above with MIMEDefang/Spamassassin, but I'll be darned
if I can figure out how. And the more I try to figure it out, it seems, the
more confused I am getting.

You should look at the /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter file (assuming your sendmail config directory is /etc/mail, it may be different on your system). hopefully you are familiar with Perl.

Also, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to feed it spam. I have Sendmail/Qpopper
and most of my users pick up their mail using Outlook Express. I understand
I can't just forward spam to a spam mailbox and run sa-learn on that as the
forwarding will not get the original headers.

you could add code in your mimedefang-filter to copy mail scoring (x) points to a spam catch-all, although being an ISP you may have privacy issue concerns.

There has to be a easy way to learn to use this and get it to do what I want but I can't really figure it out. Surely there are some other ISP's on these lists who might be willing to tell me how they use it.


for your situation, the commercially available CanIT (or CanIT-PRO) may be more appropriate. Have you considered it?
