What is the command to restart spamd if we are using spamc? Would it be the
following? Anyway to find out what the switches do?
spamd -d -x -u nobody Here is the current systems as far as I know, hopes this helps in finding
the file who spam assassin forwards email to.
InterScan v3.8 for UNIX is an Internet virus scanning package.
POSTFIX
PROCMAIL
SPAMASSASSIN 2.6

Stop... don't edit any files in /usr/share/spamassassin unless you know the implications of doing so. Create a /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and put your custom settings there. ALL FILES in /usr/share/spamassassin will be deleted when you upgrade spamassassin. In general only make changes to /usr/share/spamassassin when you know that you want the changes to be obliterated when you upgrade. (For example, I sometimes take a fixed version of a rule from CVS and replace the one in /usr/share/spamassassin/. I know that when I next upgrade, the fix will be included, so wiping out the change is what I really want to do. These kinds of short term "fixing it until the next release comes out" type situations are pretty much the only time you should consider editing files in /usr/share/spamassassin) > >Question 1= Do I need to restart anything service for these new sites to >be added? > Question 1a=IF the above is no, when do you need to restart > Spam Assassin? >Question 2= After googling...

If you use the spamassassin command line, you don't need spamd, and nothing needs restarting, since nothing stays running. If you use spamc, then spamd must be running on your system, and spamd must be restarted when you edit your config. >New Question ? >The system was previously setup and forwards all mail to "mailbox A", >which is a users name, I would like to change that to "mailbox B" , which >would be a generic account. >Question 1= How do I do this? >Question 2= Do I need to restart anything? The answer to both depends on what mail tools you are using. Tell us a bit about your system.. is it sendmail, postfix, qmail, exim? are you using procmail? any scanning integration tools (ie: amavis, mailscanner, mimedefang) |
