I'm running what I take to be a standard postfix/amavis/clamav/dovecot/spamassassin setup on my newly-installed CentOS-6.5 server. As far as I can see, the setup is working ok, except that spam - marked as such - is getting through to my email client (KMail under Fedora-20). I'm not clear which program should be filtering out the spam?
I assume there is a standard way of filtering out spam-marked messages? I could do it at the client (KMail) stage, but it would seem more logical to do it at the server (dovecot) stage. I see that there is a setting $QUARANTINEDIR = "/var/virusmails"; in /etc/amavisd.conf , and some spam is collected in this folder. I think this is spam detected by clamav , which I assume looks for virus-infected email. I guess I would also like sa-learn to automatically learn from, and then delete, the filtered spam - though I could easily set up a crond process to do this. Any suggestions or advice gratefully received - or pointer to documentation dealing with this specific point. I did look through a number of online documents, eg <http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd>. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
