I have Postfix+Dovecot+MySql running on a MAC OS X 10.10.3 and mail is
delivered on the server fine. I did have a different setup originally
with Spambayes as the spam filter, but changed it and now can't figure
out how to reconfigure spambayes?
I hope I am being clear enough here...
The old configuration says the mail box as the standard Unix mail
---------------------
robert$ pwd
/Users/robert/Mail
and in the directory, the various files, including ...
drwx------ 7 robert staff 238 15 Oct 2014 .Spam.NotSpam
drwx------ 7 robert staff 238 15 Oct 2014 .Spam.SpamSamples
and
/var/mail
--------------
This configuration allowed for virtual web sites hosted to have mail
facilities, but each user had to have a physical user/login on the
system. A bit of a pain at times when they didn't actually use it. and
mail was delivered to the system as well las the users virtual mailbox.
I changed the set up to address this by setting up Virtual users, and
manage it via the MySql Virtual users options. This allows me to have
multiple username, or mail addresses as it were, for any given domain.
See the example below for chalmers.com.au
BUT... this is my problem now, in relation to Spambayes.
The mail box set up now looks like this,
............... extract from Dovecot.conf .........
#mail_location = maildir:~/Mail/Dovecot <---- old setups
#mail_location = mbox:-~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u <---- old setups
mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n <---- new setup
--------------------------------------------
which produces mail boxes like this.
( cd /var/mail ) <--- original, now not used ...
Now.... /var/mail/vhosts
with for example...
cd to
/var/mail/vhosts/chalmers.com.au
ls -l
drwx------ 15 vmail vmail 510 9 May 17:18 postmaster
drwxr-xr-x 20 vmail vmail 680 10 May 11:57 robert
If I look in the directory for "robert" - I see all the dovecot mail
related files, but no spam. not.spam folders. hmmm, maybe I have to set
the user to vmail:vmail?
So you can see that there are two users of the chalmers.com.au domain
listed here.
Phew ..... now, the spambayes, or should I say procmailrc configuration
to check the mail boxes is looking like this...
............................
UMASK=007
SHELL=/bin/sh
#LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log
#VERBOSE=on
#MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail/Dovecot <- old setup
MAILDIR=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n <- new set up .... but doesn't work
... I don't think.
SPAMBAYESDIR=/usr/local/spambayes
DELIVER="/usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/deliver -c
/usr/local/dovecot/etc/dovecot.conf"
INCLUDERC=$SPAMBAYESDIR/etc/rc.custom1
nothing else changed below this... spambayesrc unchanged.
If anyone has solved this problem, could you please point me in the
right direction?
I am reading mail on the Mac mail server with MailMate fine, and mail
is being delivered to the right people, but I'd like to be able to
include Spambayes back in the mix if I can? If it can't be done, well I
guess I'll have to abandon it.
Thanks
Robert
