    Hello world,

    I have a Dell R300 server running Ubuntu 8.10 Server. I have followed the how-to "Perfect Server 8.10 Ubuntu" and I installed ISPConfig with spamassassin, clamAV and postfix. At the moment everything is running great. Meaning...if i use the drop down menu for any user and select ON for SpamAssassin or antivirus they run great. My only problem is that i want to know how can I tweak the default settings for spamassassin and clamAV. I read some tutorials about integrating spamassasin into postfix, but i couldn't find anything in my postfix config file, even if spamassassin works perfect (eg it renames the subject with ***SPAM*** )

    here is my master.cf file from postfix:

    root@server1:/home/hackish# cat /etc/postfix/master.cf

    # of the file, see the master(5) manual page (command: "man 5 master").

    # Do not forget to execute "postfix reload" after editing this file.

    spamassassin config file is in:

    root@server1:/home/hackish# cat /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
    # This is the right place to customize your installation of SpamAssassin.
    #
    # See 'perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf' for details of what can be
    # tweaked.
    #
    # Only a small subset of options are listed below
    #
    ################################################## #########################

    # Add *****SPAM***** to the Subject header of spam e-mails
    #
    # rewrite_header Subject *****SPAM*****


    # Save spam messages as a message/rfc822 MIME attachment instead of
    # modifying the original message (0: off, 2: use text/plain instead)
    #
    # report_safe 1


    # Set which networks or hosts are considered 'trusted' by your mail
    # server (i.e. not spammers)
    #
    # trusted_networks 212.17.35.


    # Set file-locking method (flock is not safe over NFS, but is faster)
    #
    # lock_method flock


    # Set the threshold at which a message is considered spam (default: 5.0)
    #
    # required_score 5.0


    # Use Bayesian classifier (default: 1)
    #
    # use_bayes 1


    # Bayesian classifier auto-learning (default: 1)
    #
    # bayes_auto_learn 1


    # Set headers which may provide inappropriate cues to the Bayesian
    # classifier
    #
    # bayes_ignore_header X-Bogosity
    # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Flag
    # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Status


    seems like most options are disabled including
    # rewrite_header Subject *****SPAM*****
    but, it is actualy working per user mode and i can select that from ispconfig. My question is: What file do I edit for tweaking spamassassin, since this one has the "rewrite_header" disabled, still it's using it ? I think clamav is in the same situation.

    Thank you very much and have a nice day :)

    There is a user_prefs master template in /root/ispconfig/isp/conf. You can modify it to your likings and save the modified version in /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/customized_templates/.
