[sniffer] Re: Question, changing from SNF4SA to Milter, using freebsd

[P Pruett]

Interesting, yes, the spamassassin SNF4SA does seem to be able to use
snf-milter instead of snf-server.

On freebsd 9.3 with Sendmail, I did add the milter and restarted sendmail
and its seems to be playing okay.

Now I turned it on, I am not sure what the snf milter is doing.

Can you point me to some more documentation with details about what the
milter is doing?
From what I saw in the setup file it can Allow, Accept, Retry, Reject

I was think it might insert information in the header

Would be nice if the milter could be somehow be used to promote IP
addresses into a pf table
for the pf firewall  to redirect with?

I would not be good at writing custom milters, but I'd be willing to
test some
things if someone would like to try.

[sniffer] Question, changing from SNF4SA to Milter, using freebsd

[P Pruett]

I have to admin I missed reading INSTALL t he first time around...
But I  have SNF4SA working on Freebsd 9.3 and it helped when I realized
I needed to setup snf-server.

Later I thought to try out snf-milter,  so I did read perhaps to quickly
/usr/local/share/doc/snf-milter/INSTALL

The steps had some similar steps that are in
 /usr/local/share/doc/snf-server/INSTALL

For some reason I thought, I could run both snf-milter and snf-server at 
the same

time.   When I "service snf-milter start"   that kills snf-server

One of the many things I  assumed was that they could both run at the 
same time...

Well that did not happen.

So I made sure I "service snf-server stop" and still snf-milter did not 
start.


At this point I will likely need to do some research to see why,
but I got snf-server restarted because it was working.

So what "gotchas" do you know that I need to be aware of if I already 
have snf-server

setup and I am going to try snf-milter?
