Hi folks, I'm looking into hooking the Mail::SpamAssassin module into a perl processor for a couple of web forms - contact us, comments form, and publish an article form (open publishing).
The main barrier seems to be the need for a message format rather than just a plain text body. I tried two approaces: 1) I tried just passing the body text to SA but this triggers a load of missing header rules. 2) I tried to 'spoof' the headers to get SA to process each post like it's a normal mail, but found my spoof headers caused various issues as well not least long delays - I'm guessing while the spoof email domais (always the same) are checked via the network. Also, I probably need to disable a bunch of rules that aren't really appropriate, e.g. looking up the sender email address since I'm just using a dummy one anyway (except for the contact form). Seems like mainly the header rules would need to be disabled, and the body rules given more weighting. Is there an easy way to do this? Alternatively, perhaps I should just identify particular rules that are relevant and call the directly. Is this possible? Thanks for any help. mike
