This is probably a dumb question, but my looking through the docs is just confusing me.
Can I get SpamAssassin to fully log what it is doing? The best I can ever get is something like this; Mon Aug 3 06:27:57 2009 [4290] info: logger: removing stderr method Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: spamd: server started on port 783/tcp (running version 3.2.5) Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: spamd: server pid: 4292 Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: spamd: server successfully spawned child process, pid 4293 Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: spamd: server successfully spawned child process, pid 4294 Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: prefork: child states: SI Mon Aug 3 06:27:58 2009 [4292] info: prefork: child states: II Mon Aug 3 06:34:31 2009 [4292] info: spamd: server killed by SIGTERM, shutting down But never any actual information on the mail scanning process. The problem, from my perspective, is I reject with a milter at the SMTP stage - so I never get to see any blocked messages. I have a few in my logs that Fetchmail has picked up from a pop account, before dumping them into Postfix - and I have no Spamassassin log I can view to see what they caught on and if I need to take any action. I had a look at: Mail::SpamAssassin::Logger - SpamAssassin logging module But I'm not entirely sure how to invoke that or if I can get it to give me what I need. It is very terse in information. Perhaps I can start SA differently to produce a log of the scanning it is doing? I'm sure this is a beginners question and I feel very stupid having to ask - but I cannot find the obvious answer. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- C Werclick
