Hi all,
I faced some really annoying timeouts in the last few days (that have caused
tons of spam to get through), but after having forced an expire with
sa-learn, I noticed a really good improvement.
I have anyway some questions on sa-learn:
Actually, these are related to your MailScanner set up and could have
also been asked on the MailScanner users mailing list.
Currently, I have "auto_learn 1" in my local.cf, and I set
SpamAssassin Timeout = 120
Rebuild Bayes Every = 86400
Wait During Bayes Rebuild = no
Personally, I disable MailScanner from rebuilding Bayes, with:
Rebuild Bayes Every = 0
Then I run
/usr/local/bin/sa-learn --force-expire
once a day.
in my MailScanner.conf.
With this settings, is it good practice to schedule a daily "sa-learn
--force-expire" and, after that, an "sa-learn --spam" on my spam folder
(that I feed during the day)? Does the "auto_learn 1" interfere in some way?
I also have around 40 bayes_toks.expire<nnnn> files of max 5 MB... It's no
big deal, but should I delete them?
Generally, these are indications of expiry runs that never complete.
Finally, when MailScanner restarts, I see on the logfile some messages
saying:
"Jan 19 06:31:30 eolo MailScanner[22125]: SpamAssassin temporary working
directory is /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp"
is it something I should be worried about?
You should ask this on the MailScanner mailing list.
I do think that looks wrong to me.
