Re: [qmailtoaster] QmailToaster: Unable to add Spam Filter using wiki steps
I'm running CentOS 5.8 (32 Bit) with 100GB HD and 2GB ram (virtual server) which is running off a CentOS 5.7 (64bit) with 16GB (if this information is needed).

Re: [qmailtoaster] QmailToaster: Unable to add Spam Filter using wiki steps
I could be wrong, but IIRC it doesn't create a SPAM folder until it receives SPAM. Maybe someone else can chin=me in if this is correct.

Re: [qmailtoaster] QmailToaster: Unable to add Spam Filter using wiki steps
I followed Dave's suggestion of adding the maildrop-toaster in the rebuild (using qtp-newmodel). Unfortunately, I do not see the Spam folder get generated, maybe due to the fact I do not have any emails marked as spam? In regards to Eric's advice: Thank you for the insight of improving the email server's security. I'll definitely try that out. So, I have to (somehow) send a spam email to my new account to get the spam folder generated. [ SUGGESTION FROM PREVIOUS EMAIL ] The 1st line here is for SquirrelMail's benefit. It's allowing SM to relay (IOW send with no authentication) because of the way that SM is configured. If you add: $smtpServerAddress = 'localhost'; $smtpPort = 587; $smtp_auth_mech = 'login'; to your /etc/squirrelmail/config_**local.php file, then you can remove the 127. line from the tcp.smtp file. This is a bit more secure, provides better logging of submissions, and is a bit simpler (imo). I expect we'll be making this change in the stock configuration at some point. That isn't the issue here though (someone might find it useful). [ END SUGGESTION ] Does anyone have suggestions how to do this (sorry if this is a dumb question)? I've tried taking spam email (marked from another email server using qmailrocks setup and Spam Assassin install) and the server will not even scan when I send it from Qmail. So I tried from my other account (which simscan did scan) but did not mark it as spam. Any solutions?

Re: [qmailtoaster] QmailToaster: Unable to add Spam Filter using wiki steps
Thank you for the prompt response. In qmailadmin, I do have the Spam Detection? checked for all the accounts for the domain. Here are the steps I take when creating a new account through qmailadmin 1) Log into qmailadmin as postmaster for domain 2) Click on Add New Account 3) Put in account settings and check the Spam Detection option. 4) Account is added, so went into Squirrel Mail web client. 5) Log into account using login information. 6) SSH into mail server and type the following command: ls -al /home/vpopmail/domains/domainname.com/user_name/Maildir/ Here is the following results: drwx-- 9 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 . drwx-- 3 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 .. drwx-- 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 courierimapkeywords -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 36 Jun 24 22:46 courierimapsubscribed -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 15 Jun 24 22:46 courierimapuiddb drwx-- 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 cur drwx-- 6 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 .Drafts -rw--- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 14 Jun 24 22:46 maildirsize drwx-- 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 new drwx-- 6 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 .Sent drwx-- 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 tmp drwx-- 6 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 24 22:46 .Trash The Spam folder is not being created when the account is being created.
