Messages not analyzed by SA on Postfix with Amavis

    Hi.
    I recently set up a debian etch mail server running Postfix with virtual users in MySQL tables.
    I was able to get Amavis+ClamAV to work (X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new-2.4.2 (20060627) (Debian) at XXX.net) but it seems that spamassassin is never called when a message is received.

    Since I wouldn't know exactly which conf files I should post let me know and I'll do it ASAP.

    Please restart amavisd and take a look at /var/log/mail.log. When amavisd restarts, it logs all modules it loads. SpamAssassin should be listed there as well.

    I did what you suggested and apparently amavis is able to load SA:
    Code:
    Aug 16 19:49:38 bnix amavis[12719]: Module Mail::SpamAssassin  3.002000
    unfortunately the spam messages remain unmarked and no headers are added.this is my amavis conf relative to headers & pass/reject rules:

    Code:
    $sa_spam_subject_tag = '***SPAM*** ';
    $sa_tag_level_deflt  = 3.0;
    $sa_tag2_level_deflt = 4.0;
    $sa_kill_level_deflt = 5.0;
    $sa_dsn_cutoff_level = 10;
    
    $final_virus_destiny = D_DISCARD;
    $final_banned_destiny = D_REJECT;
    $final_spam_destiny = D_PASS;
    $final_bad_header_destiny = D_PASS;

    You could set $sa_tag_level_deflt to 0.0 for testing purposes and then take a look at the headers of the emails to see if SpamAssassin added the tests to it that scored points.

    so now apparently Amavis correctly tags the messages as spam:

    Code:
    Aug 18 22:17:35 bnix amavis[10877]: (10877-06) Passed SPAM, [66.49.175.101] [66.95.179.33] <[email protected]> -> <[email protected]>, quarantine: spam-mNi8rj1U9lXs.gz, Message-ID: <[email protected]>, mail_id: mNi8rj1U9lXs, Hits: 8.349, queued_as: 87C5817A1, 7494 ms
    Aug 18 22:17:35 bnix postfix/smtp[11625]: A81B715AB: to=<[email protected]>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=8.7, delays=1.1/0.06/0.03/7.5, dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 Ok, id=10877-06, from MTA([127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 87C5817A1)
    but still no headers or '[SPAM]' tag are not added to the message.
