I am somewhat confused on how alias email addresses get the spam policy. I changed the normal spam policy to SPAM tag2 level 6.9 trigger happy to SPAM tag2 level 4 Say I have create the domain mydomain.com and set it to normal. Create said user [email protected] and set it to trigger happy. Now if I send mail to [email protected] the headers show "X-Spam-Status: No, score=2.21 tagged_above=1 required=4" Ok its working Now if I create an email alias [email protected] and point it to [email protected] the header reads "X-Spam-Status: No, score=2.21 tagged_above=1 required=6.9" Back to domain default normal spam policy not the main email account settings. Shouldn't the alias inherit the spam policy of the main email account and not the domain?
If a recipient address does not exist in the spamfiletr users list, then amavisd uses the domain policy as fallback and if this does not exist, it will use the system defaults.
I see now! I was under the impression that aliases would somehow match the main email address. Seems you have to also add them to Spamfilter Users section. This is what I wasn't doing. Perhaps a cleaner way of adding the users to spamfilter at same time the alias is created would be helpful. Same way the Add New Mailbox function does. Just a check or something on email alias page. Thanks for your help Doug
