How I am moving items to quarantine (if you don't have a quarantine, it
will delete SPAM in this setup) is to change the simscan-toaster SRPM:
My simscan-toaster.spec looks like this for the config section:
------------
%configure \
--enable-user=clamav \
--disable-ripmime \
--enable-spam \
--enable-received \
--enable-quarantinedir=/var/qmail/quarantine \
--enable-clamavdb-path=/usr/share/clamav \
--enable-custom-smtp-reject
------------
So, I removed:
--enable-spam-passthru
and I added
--enable-quarantinedir=/var/qmail/quarantine
Then I create the directory /var/qmail/quarantine and do:
chown -R clamav:vchkpw /var/qmail/quarantine
After that, all items that are spam (or viruses) are written to the
quarantine directrory.
Then I created a clean-up script named clean_quarantine that runs
everyday (put it in /etc/cron.daily) ... it looks like this:
--------------
#! /bin/bash
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
/usr/bin/find /var/qmail/quarantine -mtime +14 -exec rm {} \;
--------------
As to changes to local.cf ... the only change I have changed in there
now is that I have changed hits required from 5 to 6.
