thank you all... i read this docs on the spamassaassin site..
i did set up a directory with the newly generated spam dbs and set up the permissions but sa still lets through more or less the same amount of spam. i'm not sure its working. i was collecting unregistered spam sent to me for about 10 days and had more then 2500 messages which i fed to sa-learn and i still get more or less the same amount of spam as before. in my user-conf i set up the bayes path like this: bayes_path /var/spamdb since the setup on this machine is using vpopmail i granted only reading permissions to the vpopmail group. anything else i'm missing? thanks.... > I think he means.. > > perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf > > > -- > Martin Hepworth > Snr Systems Administrator > Solid State Logic > Tel: +44 (0)1865 842300 > > > kalin mintchev wrote: >>>On Mon, 10 Jan 2005 05:32:05 -0500 (EST) >>>"kalin mintchev" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> >>> >>>>if spamd reads individual user-pref the bayes_path should be set up in >>>>each individual file, correct? the local.cf would be ignored? right? >>>>and if i use vpopmail the db files must have read permissions only for >>>>the vpopmail user or group i assume... >>> >>>man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf to see what options are available in user >>>preferences. >> >> >> No manual entry for Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf ?! >> >> do i have to install this separetly or it comes together with >> Mail::SpamAssassin? >> >> >> >>>Alex >>> >> >> >> >> -- >> >> > > ********************************************************************** > > This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and > intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they > are addressed.
