How do I stop spamassassin from checking email twice
Hi, I have two mail servers one with domain aaa.com, second bbb.com. Both have spamassassin installed. Most distribution lists on aaa.com routes emails to bbb.com. So email gets checked twice. Adding whitelist_to aaa.com in bbb spamassassin configuration is not a solution because it overwrites result by first spamassassin check. How can I skip spam checking on bbb.com if email originated from aaa.com ? Software: debian 5.0 spamass-milter 0.3.1-2 spamassassin3.2.3-0.volatile1 sendmail 8.13.8-3 (on bbb.com, can be replaced by postfix if solution requires it) postfix 2.5.5-1.1 (on aaa.com) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-do-I-stop-spamassassin-from-checking-email-twice-tp26006130p26006130.html Sent from the SpamAssassin - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

You are much better off tagging it and delivering it to a spam mailbox and letting the user either delete it, recover it, or ignore it. You could do something like delete all messages in the Spam folder after 7 days, or 21 days; but once you accept an email for someone else, you had probably best deliver it to them, regardless of how sure you are it's unwanted because sure enough, at some point you'll be wrong and it will, of course, be the most important email your client ever got and they have to have it right now or they will lose a $15,000,000 deal and what the hell are you going to do about it and who cares if it scored 42.9 in SpamAssassin? True. I only delete spam for customers who have serious spam problems and only then after having a discussion with them regarding the possibility of lost mail. I scan and add the SA headers to everything that passes through my server. It is then up to the customer to configure their MUA to sort out the spam. For customers that get lots of spam we do a combination of delivering low-scoring spam to their POP mailbox, holding higher-scoring spam on the server for two weeks, and (optionally) deleting spam with the highest scores. The score ranges are determined on a case-by-case basis, but are generally something like 5-10, 10-20, and 20+. This is in addition to an MTA block on the Zen blacklist (which I have yet to have any complaints about). -- Bowie

Re: Spamassassin not tagging some emails
Hi, On the message that should have been scanned: The emails that has not been tagged at all: [...] From: Angus - 3idea angus.d...@3idea.com To: supp...@3idea.com Are you forwarding this spam from your internal account to this other internal supp...@3idea.com account? It also looked like there was no external mail server involved. If so, I would think that SA trusts your internal network, and therefore is just passing the message through without even evaluating it. If you want your internal mail to also be scanned, remove your mail server from trusted_networks and internal_networks. I think that should fix it. Regards, Alex
hostkarma/uribl_black disparity
Hi, Over the past few days I have been investigating more closely email that wasn't tagged that I thought should have been, and vice-versa, using various factors, such as URIBL_BLACK and JMF_W. I'm very surprised that obvious hosts are on the URIBL_BLACK list, like receiveeweek.com. Even more interesting is a bunch of FNs that contain both URIBL_BLACK and JMF_W. I'm not sure which is correct in many cases, because they are not always so cut-and-dried. For example, there was a Citi Bank email (whitelisted) that happened to use an image server (csnimages.com) that is in URIBL_BLACK. While I don't think that particular email should have been tagged as spam, it's only an example, and I hoped someone would be interested enough to check out a list I created with these types of disparities I've had over the last day or so. It's too long to include here, so I've created a pastebin for it: http://pastebin.com/m4a1561b5 I realize this type of thing could happen for many reasons, not the least of which is an otherwise-legitimate host that has been compromised and now used to send spam. However, many on my list are quite persistent, like blr-events.com and eturbonews.com, which I have no idea whether it is legitimate or bogus. Whatever the case, there are definitely mistakes, and I'd like to help correct them. Ideas appreciated. I'd be glad to gather more info if necessary. Thanks Alex
