Presently, MIMEdefang can be configured to add the SpamAssassin report
as a separate text attachment to the orignal message. The code that
does this is in mimedefang-filter at approximately line 317:
if ($hits >= $req) {
action_change_header("X-Spam-Score", "$hits ($score)
$names");
md_graphdefang_log('spam', $hits, $RelayAddr);
# If you find the SA report useful, add it, I guess...
action_add_part($entity, "text/plain", "-suggest",
"$report\n",
"SpamAssassinReport.txt", "inline");
Although this code performs its intended purpose, it creates a mail message
that is incompatible with the SA -d (remove markup) switch. Spamassassin
creates a message of the form:
header:
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="----------=_41CC5623.58847487"
body:
This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
------------=_41CC5623.58847487
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Disposition: inline
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
[spamassassin report]
------------=_41CC5623.58847487
Content-Type: message/rfc822; x-spam-type=original
Content-Description: original message before SpamAssassin
Content-Disposition: attachment
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
[... original unaltered message]
------------=_41CC5623.58847487--
===============================================================
This message format is useful, because (for example) spam messages
can be fed back into SA for unlearning if they were false positives,
and for building a clean mbox file that contains only the original
spam messages. SA doesn't understand the mail message format
created by MIMEdefang's default action.
What actions are required to have MIMEdefang build a spam message
containing the report and the original message, as outlined above?
thanks - Gary
