Spamfilter policy - question about spam actions (amavisd config bug ?) ispconfig3 on Cento5.4, all works. ... i am testing antispam sending to preconfigured email accounts some mail containing "triggers text" in order to verify/test spam actions. i have chosen inside "Spamfilter policy" the "Normal" policy, here it is preconfigured default settings of the "Tag Level" tab: SPAM tag level: 3 SPAM tag2 level: 6.9 SPAM kill level: 6.9 SPAM dsn cutoff level: 0 SPAM quarantine cutoff level: 0 SPAM modifies subject: Yes SPAM subject tag: (blank) SPAM subject tag2: (blank) i have noticed that sending an email with spam hits equal to "4" (created for this purpose), i can see in mail log that mail is correctly detected as SPAM, but it's not marked (rewritten in the subject i mean) and normally delivered. i think it's normal (pls confirm if i am right) since the SPAM subject tags are "blank" and so there is not subject rewrite. .. well, so i have modified the SPAM subject tags settings above into: SPAM subject tag: SPAM: SPAM subject tag2: SPAM: now the spam email with "4" spam hits is marked in the subject with "SPAM: original subject" and delivered. is this the right procedure in order to deliver SPAM emails, detected between the tag level 1 and 2, and mark them spam in the subject ? .. other questions: how can i do in order to not deliver SPAM emails between tag level 1 and 2 and quarantine them ? i have to deal with "SPAM quarantine cutoff level" setting ? .. what does it mean "SPAM dsn cutoff level" it's related to "notifications" ? ... mails that have spam hits > "SPAM kill level" are quaratined & not trashed (deleted), am i right ? thanks in advance. bye.
i update this thread since i have discovered something "wrong" (i think) in amavisd.conf; inside this file i saw "two" times (placed in different lines i mean) these groups of statements: starting at line 157: $final_virus_destiny = D_REJECT; $final_banned_destiny = D_REJECT; $final_spam_destiny = D_PASS; $final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS; and after, starting at line 775: $final_virus_destiny = D_BOUNCE; $final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD; $final_banned_destiny = D_BOUNCE; $final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS; (note that are all not commented) the bad thing is that are different settings of same directives i think i have to delete one group of them, right ? which one ? can be an installation/configuration bug ? thanks in advance.
I'd comment out the first section. Might be a problem in the ISPConfig installer for CentOS - we will check that.
No, thats not nescessary. Amavis will only use the last lines, the first one will be ignored. Anyway, the configuration that you do in ispconfig when you select a policy overrides these, so they do not matter for all emails domains or mailboxes that you assigned a policy.
thanks Falko.. check also this strange behaviour i posted here: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42965 (about the "double" amavisd.conf files) since it can lead not to use correctly amavis... i think it can be related to some installation issue. thanks Till..yes i confirm since i have changed & made some tests in that direction.. uhmm..me too thought that, but from the test i made, have to say that it does not ovveride.. let me explain: in the amavis conf file i have deleted the two statements groups above and wrote one group with the following settings: $final_virus_destiny = D_DISCARD; $final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD; $final_banned_destiny = D_BOUNCE; $final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS; well, now if i change $final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD; into $final_spam_destiny = D_PASS; and i send a spam gtube test email to account inside ispconfig, (see above ispconfig tab settings), are not killed (deleted), but tagged as "SPAM: subject" even if "SPAM kill level: 6.9" only putting $final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD; i obtain that email with spam hits > 6.9 are killed(deleted).. so, do you think it's not normal or there's something wrong into my ispconfig/amavis integration ?
