Since you mentioned it, we have not been able to make this work
together with spam detection.
If we create an account [EMAIL PROTECTED] and define a remote catchall
[EMAIL PROTECTED], mail is delivered just fine. But if we activate spam
detection, mail messages never get to the user Maildir. In spite of
that, Qmail logs the messages as successfully delivered.
Our mailfilter is pretty simple (and that might well be the cause of
the problem). We only want to tag Subject lines of spam messages, so
it looks like:
##############################
#mailfilter
##############################
SHELL="/bin/sh"
import EXT
import HOST
VHOME=`/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]
if ( $SIZE < 262144 )
{
exception {
xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc -f -u [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
}
}
exception {
to "$VHOME/Maildir/"
}
##############################
By the way, spam detection works just fine for regular
(not catchall) accounts.
Our setup is: RH Linux 7.3, qmail-1.03 (several patches),
qmailadmin-1.0.23, vpopmail-5.3.20.
We would really appreciate any insights into this problem.
