Hey all,

I'd like to run one spamd box for many clients, using SQL user prefs. Is there a way to have spamd use different domain names -- or have spamc pass the `hostname' of the machine along?

basically I will have a different sql userpref for [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED], or different global defaults for hosta.com. This seems elementary to do, but I can't figure out how to make spamd tell which one to use -- maybe based on the connecting ip, maybe based on a command line/config file variable passed.

Hi,

How are you calling spamc ? All of our simscan (for qmail) servers call spamc with the -u option, passing the full [EMAIL PROTECTED] part. We do this for about 500 different domains currently, all with their own preferences per domain and per user.

Right now spamc gets the username from $>, i.e. there is no -u specified.

I made this post to comp.mail.misc http://groups.google.com/group/comp.mail.misc/browse_thread/thread/57a032d36d6d7142/b44ac792b3e77660#b44ac792b3e77660

I made a similar post to the spamassassin users list.

Neither got a single response.

I'm thinking about hacking in a -h option to allow spamd to pass an arbitrary @hostname segment.

Would help if I knew C. Either spamc needs the separate hostname option, or spamd needs to know to look at where spamc is connecting from and use that.
