Hi,
I got this problem. It's only come up recently and it used to work before so i'm not sure what's the problem now. I installed SpamAssassin 2.63 and since haven't been able to get any e-amil through.
I use an SME6.0 server and have RAV Antivirus 8.4.2 for Mailservers with a valid license. SpamAssassin 2.63 from http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/index.html?frame=http%3A//sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/howtos/howto_16.htm
[My Problem]
I reinstalled SME6.0 today and checked my e-mail and it was working. I then installed RAV but afterwards found the e-mail didn't work anymore. Now I think it's qmail that's not initializing properely. Can anyone help? I installed SpamAssassin from above website but e-mail still doesn't work.
[What i did]
I must say when I do a clean install the copy do a recovery the e-mail works. When I install RAV then it doesn't work anymore. I followed the instructions to installing RAV through the INSTALL file that came with it.
I copied the rav files to my home dir. I went to my home dir. and ran the following:
killall -TERM qmail-send
rpm -ivh ravcore-8.11.0-1.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh ravmd-8.4.2-2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh ravqmail-8.4.2-1.i386.rpm
/etc/init.d/ravmail start
/opt/rav/bin/ravupdate <-- RAV Update
/etc/init.d/ravmail restart
cp ravmd.key /var/opt/rav
killall -HUP ravmd
I did a test mail but the mail didn't come through.
our message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

But still no Test e-mail goes through.

I don't think many people use RAV anymore, they were purchased by Microsoft. I've had much better results since I switched to clamav and spamassassin. Even better when I switched to clamav and ASSP.

I use RAV on SME6.0 and it works fine. I used the contrib from Darrel May (no longer has it) to install it and it works straight off with a nice admin interface. I don't use Spamassassin - have much better results with ASSP. After only two weeks of it 'learning' it filters 100% of spam my company gets - may be worth you giving it a try.
-
Thx i'll try it out.
I should be looking at http://assp.sourceforge.net/ right??

Maybe you should try out
- QMail
- Clamav
- Amavis
Check out http://pagefault.org for mor info.
You can then add SpamAssasin.
Good luck.

Is Clamav free??
