Yeah, it's definitely out of EPEL 8, as far as I can tell.

Looking around for other filtering solutions, I came across rspamd (https://www.rspamd.com/), which I'd never even heard of, and MailScanner (https://www.mailscanner.info/). There's also bogofilter (https://bogofilter.sourceforge.io/), which seems to have been updated relatively recently.

CRM-114 also comes up from time to time. I've played with it and found it effective (it was eerily good at recognizing 419 emails), but it's a bit of a bear to use.

Anyone have a favorite to recommend?

It doesn't look like dspam is in the EPEL repo for CentOS 8--may be wrong, I might have to do some contorting. It's really the only thing that's kept the inbox clean. Will do some investigation and get back to you.

Thanks, Eric.

I notice that this is for CentOS 5 thru 7. dspam is no longer included in EPEL 8, so I assume some sleight of hand is needed to get it onto a CentOS 8 system.

How much more complex is it to get dspam working on CentOS 8, on a scale from "You just have to change this one thing" to "Abandon hope all ye who enter here"?

Thanks,

The user-level dspam support sounds intriguing. Is that something already documented online somewhere, or that you could describe (and wouldn't mind sharing)?

I like maildrop because it suits some of the things I've implemented: more advanced logging, out-of-office triggered by sending yourself with pre-designated subject, user level dspam support etc...

If Sieve did this I'd like it as much, maybe it will, but it was a little to involved to implement, but that could be just my inexperience with it.

Thank you, Eric. That's extremely helpful.

Out of interest, does anyone have any thoughts about the relative merits of maildrop and sieve: any reason to prefer one over the other?

<sigh> I was afraid someone would say that. ;-)

Any pointers? For procmail and maildrop it's fairly straightforward -- just set up your .qmail files to pipe incoming mail through them. It looks as if Sieve support is via dovecot, which makes things a little more complex. Does anyone who has implemented Sieve have any pointers or recommendations to share?

Thanks,

Angus

I'd support both Sieve and Maildrop.

For a long time, I've used procmail for filtering incoming mail in qmailtoaster setups. I understand that procmail is now unmaintained, and that maildrop might be a more future-proof choice. So I'm adding maildrop support to my ansible role.

Are there other tools that I should consider? I'm not interested in supporting every possible tool just for the sake of it, but if there's a better option(*) than maildrop, I'd like to look at that.

I've heard of Sieve, but I think it may be too limited compared with procmail and maildrop.

Thanks,

Angus



(*) By a better option, I mean one that someone actually uses, rather than something theoretical that would be 'nice to have'. Also, at this time I'm only looking to support FOSS solutions, not commercial products.
