autoreply not to Spammer

Hi, is it possible to modify the autoresponder-script in a way, that SPAM-detected mails are not included (no autoresponder for email containing the rewrite subjet from the user-spamfilter-dialog)?

Regards
Kai

 

Thank you till for reply!
I had a look at the autoresponder.rc.master - but thing that this job is to big for me!
Did anyone allready tried this? I think this could be a matter of general intesest, as every autoreply to a Spammer (which mostly use not-existing-email-adresses) causes in an additonal mail in the users inbox: a not delivered notice from postfix.

You could put this at the beginning of the autoresponder file:

Code:

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes

so that it looks like this:

Code:

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes

SHELL=/bin/sh    # for other shells, this might need adjustment
EMAIL=`formail -zxTo:`
[...]

I haven't tested this, but it could work.

 

Hi Falko,
thank you for that code - I already put it in a testaccount. Normals Mails are still replied. I wait until tomorrow and post the result of incomming spam.

Hi Falko an forum,
the solution code

does not work for me ...
Is it enough just to include this code in the autoresponder.rc or must there be any other changes for example in the master.cf of postfix?!
Could it work with a smal change in the code? e.g.

instead

Regards

It must be in your .autoresponder.rc only (and also in the template in /root/ispconfig/isp/conf, otherwise ISPConfig will overwrite your changes).

Yes. Try it. This tutorial might be interesting for you: http://www.howtoforge.com/procmail_tips_recipes

 

working solution

Testing around a little bit, we found a very simple solution. The job was to insert Falkos code at the correct place:

We modified the file:
/root/ispconfig/isp/conf/autoresponder.rc.master

inserting the line after "# Don't reply to SPAM"

Code:

SHELL=/bin/sh    # for other shells, this might need adjustment
EMAIL=`formail -zxTo:`

              :0 Whc: vacation.lock
               # Perform a quick check to see if the mail was addressed to us
               #* $^To:.*\<$\LOGNAME\>
               # Don't reply to daemons and mailinglists
              * !^FROM_DAEMON
               # Don't reply to SPAM
              * !^X-Spam-Status: Yes
               # Mail loops are evil
              * !^X-Loop: ${EMAIL}
              | formail -rD 8192 {PFAD}/.vacation.cache

                :0 ehc         # if the name was not in the cache
                | (formail -rI"From: {EMAIL_ADDRESS}" -I"Precedence: junk" \
                     -A"X-Loop: ${EMAIL}" ; \
                   cat {PFAD}/.vacation.msg \
                  ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t

Of course, the code effect only accounts marked for autoreply after this modification. So for existing autoreplies just disable and enable again using one of the possiblities offert by ISPConfig (domain-control or mailuser-login)

Have a nice weekend
