The SME SpamFilter uses the new SpamAssassinV3 (release candidate 1) engine and has updated Razor2, and DCC network test modules associated. In the new Server-Manager panel it has been made very simple to configure Real Time Block/Black Lists (RBLs), White/Black Lists (WBLs) and other SpamAssasssin functions.
See HowTo at:
http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/howtos/howto_29.htm
Please notice that this is a beta release so I am looking forward to get some feedback.
Rgds,

You are pure gold, man. Script tries to uninstall prev. versions - good.
What if i had manually added RBL using Ray Mitchell's Howto here: http://no.longer.valid/phpwiki/index.php/Spam%20blocking%20using%20smtpfront-qmail?
Are black/whitelist-entries kept from previous versions?
What if delete_junkmail.pl is already running?
-
The install script will detect and old installation of e-smith-spamassassin and uninstall it properly. The script will then update SpamAssassin and Razor2 and DCC.
The Spam Filter has alse been designed to co-operate with ClamAV (either from my site or Pagefault.org)
The only known issue at the moment is that the daily spam reports might not count RBL rejects correctly.
/Jesper

Just noticed your additional questions. You need to configure RBLs again via the panel, old configs will be overwritten (default no RBLs).
You should also delete the delete_junkmail.pl script from the /etc/cron.daily folder (I will update the script to the that soon).
WBLs are also not kept as I have created a new configuration file. You can hack it but I recommend to re-configure.

Hi,
I just updated from your old version. I'll let you know if I see anything strange happening. Thank you very much for all your work!
-
I too have just updated my spam filter from your old one to the new one. I liked the warning that it gave about finding a previous install, very nice.
On a side note, you always mention about getting rid of double-bounce messages because of dictionary attacks. I have found a contrib that first checks to see if the user exists on the system and if not throws up a 553 error rather than generating a bounce message. That contrib along with your double-bounce info has really reduced the load on my server.
You rock Jesper! Your site has been a very nice addition to my Bookmarks file. Also, I just like sayin "swerts-knudsen dude!" in that California surfer dude style.
Thanks for all your hard work,
Jon

Mind sharing the name of the contrib?

No I wont share! :)

It says 5.6 but I am using 6.01-01 and it is working fine...for me, as always YMMV. Also Russel Nelsons anti-virus patch blocks executable content at the smtp level. This stops a lot of viruses from ever entering your network via email which then means your AV and spam filters do not have to process them. Here is the link to that also in case you would like to look at it. Ray Mitchell wrote this one up, Thanks Ray! This is one of the patches I always put on my qmail servers until I found the joy that is SME.

Jesper,
Using my home SME as my test box at the moment... Wiped clean last night, reloaded with the custom distribution and promptly installed your Clam and SpamAssassin scripts. Made double-bounce adjustments, and then followed pagefault.org's secure mail how-to.
No RBL's have been specified, and except for enabling Spam Filter through the web console, settings are default.
I've noticed messages appearing in the Inbox with a spam rating above 15. I've also noticed nothing hitting my junkmail folder.
In previous posts there is reference to adjusting procmail - manually adding filters. In your previous SpamAssassin scripts, a console module was installed to enable/disable user access to screens, but I don't see that now.
Once I had everything the way I wanted it, I did restart the server.
Did I goof the install?
Thanks for your time!

Just curious - upgrade or clean install? As previously noted, this is on a clean install. Web mail is woring, and I do have the X-SPam header:

upgrade from 2.63
He tells me that
spamd (pid 3316 3315 3314 3313 3312 2520) is running.
service spamd status: spamd: unrecognized service
I killed all spamd procs, issued an /sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade, rebooted.
All fine now. Got the headers, webmail working again.
Jesper: you should point out that it is definitely necessary to post-upgrade, reboot.
-
I do not understand why a post upgrade should be nessesary? The service you want to check is actually called "spamassassin" and not spamd even though the process is called spamd (weird but true).
In the new spamfilter I per default enable procmail for all existing users and all new IF they are local users. Remember that procmail cannot filter on users that are just ebing forwarded. Do remember to enable the filter and press the Save/Restart button?
I am sitting in Beijing right and a little long away from home so further investigation will be delayed a few days I am afraid.
/Jesper
-
will this spam filter work if I am using the SME server to forward emails to my internal exchange server?
Or will it only work for local mailboxes?
-
Dungog.net paid email filtering contrib also comes with a spamassassin 2.6x installation/configuration, I wonder how does your contrib could affect it.
Thanks in advance
Alejandro Lengua
-
The filter will work just fine but will not sort to junkmail and autodelete above 15. Therefore I would recommend that you disable these values. The result will be that the email will be tagged in the subject field with [SPAM score of sensitivity] when they have been detected as spam.
/Jesper
-
Just to be sure I did a signal-event post-upgrade, but my messages marked spam are still hitting the inbox.
Jesper - is there anything I can check or send you that may help, or am I an isolated incident?
Thanks!
-
.. had dig through the script and noticed that there are no obvious hooks into the email stream; the old setup used to replace the qmail-queue file with a custom one that called the orig after the spam check.
How is the new setup hooking the email stream?
I use the Dungog a/v stuff and this does it by calling spamassassin via the amavis.conf file if the option is checked on, is this how the new setup works?
-
Is possible to install this in a 5.6 vers.? I have already installed spamassassin and clamav.
Thanks in advance

I have noticed a problem - it seems mail retreived via fetchmail is not being filtered.
I don't know if this is a result of this update, or was happening before, as I have only just added the fetchmail accounts.
Yesterday I received about 500 emails, of which about 300 were spam. The daily report shows only 13 emails, no spam (which is about right for the domain account on the server).
Any ideas on how to get the fetchmail mail filtered through SA?
-
A few answeres to above questions.
- The SpamFilter will only work on 6.0.x
- The spamfilter hooks into the queue dependant of other installed packages.
1) If pagefault.org's antivirus is installed then is follow the rules set by Damien.
To enable Spamassassin after installing and configuring these packages via the web manager panel at the command line type the commands:
/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop amavis-ng qmail-queue /var/qmail/bin/qmail-spamc
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update.
2) If my own ClamAV script is installed then it will change the qmail-queue parameter in the amavis.conf file
3) If none of the above then it will directly hook into the queue system via:
/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop smtpfront-qmail ExternalInterfacesFilter /usr/bin/qmail-spamc
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update
I do not know how dungog.net
interacts so I cannot say whether they can work together and how.
With respect to fetchmail then I will try to see how I can get this to work - stay tuned.
Sgt-Spam, I do not understand why you do get your email filtered and they arrive in the inbox. I do enable procmail per default. Could you post or email the procmail file for a given user?
/home/e-smith/files/users/xxx/.procmailrc

/Jesper
Actually, I don't have a .procmailrc file (ls -al to show hidden) in any of my accounts. I even created an account after the fact to see if that would help.
The script I used to install (not sure if it's been updated but I'll try a re-install after I hit 'Submit') is here (http://www.friedhoffservices.com/spamfilter_install.txt).
Thanks for your time!
-
The script you used is correct and the latest - there is no need to re-install.
I assume that you have enabled the sorting funtions in the spamfilter :-) so my best suggestion would be to try to manually enable procmail. If you have UserPanel installed then try to enable for one user and check the .procmailrc file again.
You can also do the following (also requires usermanager but is easy):
# wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamAssassin/lat-procmail
# lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
/Jesper
-
Thanks for the advice Jesper.
I downloaded / installed Dungog's userpanel and associated dependencies, then downloaded lat-procmail and executed it as you suggested.
Wa-la - email above the spam threshold is now being filtered to the junkmail folder, and messages marked spam above 15 are being deleted.
I looked back through your how-to and attempted to read the script that runs and did not see mention of the userpanel on the how-to or procmail in the script. Did I miss a prerequisite (or misread the how-to / script)? Not trying to be dumb (it comes easy to me) - just want to make sure when I go to load this at the office I've done it the right way. Your additional steps are no trouble; just want to make sure I don't have any surprises.
Again, thanks, and good work!
-
Actually I have integrated the vital portions of the UserPanel and Lat-procmail in the spamfilter RPM to avoid having these as required installs.
I guess I have to have a look to see whether something wasn't done right.
Rgds,
Jesper

Jesper,
This is good work, OK great work! I upgraded SA on one of my test boxes without a hitch. Up above you state that you will lose your RBL and WBL entries. Your previous RBL entries really aren't lost until you save/restart on the spamfilter panel the first time. For the RBL entries, is it possilbe to modify your script to read the output from /sbin/e-smith/db configuration getprop smtpfront-qmail RBLList? If so, then if there are entries, you could capture them, and import them into /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3 using /sbin/e-smith/db spamassassin_V3 set rbl.global \|RBL1\|\RBL2\|. That way, one wouldn't lose what they already had set. Or, instead of re-inventing the wheel, just have your panel read the RBLList entries from the smtpfront-qmail property. Once you save your entries from the spamfilter panel, it updates the entries in both DB's anyway. For the WBL entries is it possible to modify your script to read the entries in the /home/e-smith/spamassassin DB and extract the entries from wbl.global and put them in /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3? That way, those entries are lost as well. When you upgrade to spamfilter, the previous spamassassin DB still resides on the server. Just my 2 cents worth. You have done a great job with putting this together. I, and the many others that have come to use/test your scripts appreciate your efforts.
Thanks,
JB

Hey Jesper,
One thing I have noticed that in the spam report it is not giving a percentage blocked for RBL's. I have watched the log and am seeing 451's so I know it is using them to block but just not recording in the spam result file mailes to the administrator. Is there an easy way to correct this? I am using the new spam filter by you and pagefaults latest AV.
Thanks for any help,
Jon

Hi,
I have now released an updated SpamFilter. It can be downloaded at:
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamFilter/sme-spamfilter-1.0.1-1.noarch.rpm
Items corrected in RPM:
- Daily spam statistics should now correctly count RBL rejects
- procmail was not always updated correctly leaving tagged emails in inbox rather than being transfers to junkmail
- procmail was not always updated correctly leaving emails with score above 15 left in Inbox
Install script enhancements when upgrading from e-smith-spamassassin (SpamAssassin V2) (done in spamfilter_install.sh)
- WBL are being migrated to SpamFilter
- If RBL list had been installed as per Ray Mitchell's Howto these are migrated to SpamFilter
Rgds,
Jesper

First off, Jesper, you rock! Thanks for all the time and effort you put into these contribs of yours and for the excellent howto's you write up for the rest of us. You are a credit to humanity. ;)
A just in case. I have been having a problem with my Primary i-bay asking for username/password. How it changed I have no idea, the last thing I installed was Jespers SA update and ran
/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop amavis-ng qmail-queue /var/qmail/bin/qmail-spamc
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update
Because I was using pagefaults AV. I then followed this thread and downloaded and ran:
# wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamAssassin/lat-procmail
# lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
After this was done is when I noticed my Primary i-bay asking for a username/password. I found that the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file had been changed to look like this for the Primary i-bay:
#------------------------------------------------------------
# Primary ibay directories (Primary i-bay)
#------------------------------------------------------------
<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html>
Options Indexes
Options +Includes
AllowOverride None
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
# AuthName "Primary i-bay"
# AuthType Basic
# AuthExternal pwauth
# require user Primary
# Satisfy all

AllowOverride None
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
# AuthName "Primary i-bay"
# AuthType Basic
# AuthExternal pwauth
# require user Primary
# Satisfy all

As you can see I commented out the lines that are requiring authentication and now everything is working again.
I am posting this here just in case something happened that might be explainable. I don't see how but just in case.
Thanks Jesper,
Jon

I installed the spam filter. I do no know it fetchmail is working since I do not get to much email on that account. Bitdefender is working.
My question is do I need to make a folder so the spam email goes there. I am getting emails with Spam message like this [SPAM 6.6 of 5.0] Velez Jose, All-time Low Rates in San Juan 3.26% ......
Thank You
-
Jesper,
Since you're generally not using rpm format, could you also publish an uninstall script with each of your contributions? It makes cleaning up a little easier.
Thanks.
-
Thanks as always Jesper. (I will be sending $$ after I start upgrading)
1 quick question - is there a limit on the number of entries in the white-list ?? We tend to end up with some very extensive lists.
-
Knuddi
I tried to download and install your Spam script as per instructions but I get a connection refused error for all rpms? At the server I type "sh spamfilter_install.sh" have you changed anything?
-
I found one small syntactic error in the latest SA script, and have forwarded the information to Jesper.
My system was stock contribs.org, v6.0.1, with only the RBL enabled changes. The volume of SPAM was starting to annoy us so I opted to try (again) Jesper's latest SpamAssassin contrib.
My previous experience with earlier version of this contrib was checkered as it installed in addition to the stock SA and resulted in double tagging and general weirdness. Never could make it behave!
THIS version now works wonderfully after (at least in my instance) I hand-edited the .procmailrc files.
Right after install, this contrib was tagging correctly but sorting nothing. Weird. I found the following "error" in the syntax...
----- snip ------
~/.procmailrc
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# All mail tagged as spam (eg. with a score higher than the set threshold)
# is moved to the junkmail folder
# Configured by SME-SpamFilter from sme.swerts-knudsen.dk
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
:0
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$MAILDIR/;junkmail/
--- snip -----
the correct syntax come into play after changing it to this...
--- snip -----
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# All mail tagged as spam (eg. with a score higher than the set threshold)
# is moved to the junkmail folder
# Configured by SME-SpamFilter from sme.swerts-knudsen.dk
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
:0
* ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
$MAILDIR/;junkmail/
--- snip ----------
I am no procmail expert, so please correct me, but the envelope information indicates the word "Flag" when it determines a given email is indeed within the defined levels. The word "Flag" and then POSSIBLY having the word YES in all caps (this is where I am unclear) is what fixed my instance.
So, your mileage may vary. It makes our server behave like a champ and I await my first few days' worth of statistics to share.
regards
patrick

First of all thanks a lot Knuddi, great contrib. But there are still a few problems.
After installation spam wasn't sorted to the junkmail folder. I tried every possible solution from this topic, but nothing didn't work.
I decided to install the userpanel contrib from http://www.dungog.net/sme/files/userpanel/ and activated procmail for every user (# lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal" ) After that spam is sorted in the junkmail folder!.
Spamsorting doesn't work for the admin account btw, I cannot get that to work.
Newly creating accounts are setup correctly btw, and spam is sorted into the junkmail folder. I didn't check this before installing the userpanel contrib, so I don't know if new account work correctly without that contrib.
Maybe handy to know. I'm using the pagefault antivirus contrib also in this server.

I noticed that you are still changing all local users:
Email Delivery: Both Deliver Locally and Forward
Is this what you mean by enabling procmail on all existing users if they are local?
I didn't notice if it changes for remote only users as well. This may be an issue with someone who will see lots of mail queue up on their server for users who never check mail.

lat-procmail will need to be executable (I'm assuming it already is). If you're in the directory where the program exists, do ./lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal" Otherwise, you'll need to provide the path to the executable.

Seems to be working as spam is being sorted to junkmail folders but cannot access server panel. Any ideas?
antivirus_install.sh install also before spam filter

Rigger,
Could you post the content of /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3 if it exists?
Rgds,

Hi and thanks.
# wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamAssassin/lat-procmail
# lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
when i do this, it returns
bash: lat-procmail: command not found
lat-procmail will need to be executable (I'm assuming it already is). If you're in the directory where the program exists, do ./lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal" Otherwise, you'll need to provide the path to the executable.
hi again, and thanks for taking time helping me.
But am i totally misunderstanding what to do, cause when i go to a user lib, where lat-procmail is, ie. /home/e-smith/files/users/rasmus
and type
./lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
i get this error
bash: ./lat-procmail: /usr/bin/perl: bad interpreter: Permission denied
is there something basic here in smeserver, i have missed, or am i just unlucky
-
A few pages back there's a wget statement (posted by Knuddi I believe). That download's the 'lat-procmail' executable. You may or may not have to chmod it to make it executable.
After you have the program downloaded, you run:
./lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
If you're not running lat-procmail from the directory you downloaded it to, you need to specify the path.
For example, if you downloaded it to /root/, but you're in /home/e-smith/files/users/admin, run:
/root/lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal

The file is there but it is empty.
I'll also note that I did not see any error messages while the install script was running.

Rigger,
Delete the file and install the SpamFilter again (just the RPM). You might need to remove whatever version you have installed right now with rpm -e
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamFilter/sme-spamfilter-1.0.3-1.noarch.rpm
I will dig into how to fix the original problem which I am quite sure has to do with the RBL and WBL migration in the install script.
Rgds,
Jesper

How do I remove SpamFilter?
Is it sufficient with the command:
rpm -e sme-spamfilter
I have installed SpamFilter 1.0.3-1
Thanks in advance
-
Yes, for this purpose rpm -e is sufficient. Please make sure to also delete the /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3 before you do the new install. The SpamFilter creates a default config file upon installation and the reason for the:
Can't call method "props" on an undefined value at /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/spamfilter line 206
Is due to a failed creation.
You should also be able to just delete the spamassassin_V3 file (no spamfilter removal) and then issue the follwing on the command line:
# /sbin/e-smith/signal-event spamfilter-init-procmail
Check that the spamassassin_V3 file was created in /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3 and that it contains 3 sections:
conf.global=
rbl.global=
wbl.global=
Rgds,
Jesper
-
Thanks for your reply Knuddi
And a complete uninstall. How do I do that?
Kind regards
Cygnus600
-
you should be fine with a rpm -e. You should first disable spam filter in server-manager to ensure that its not active.
-
Thank you very much for your quick reply.

Hi,
Thanks for the the great work.
I configured RBL using smtpfront-qmail then the Spam Filter sserver manager panel then the anti Virus server manager panel.
I also do not have x-scanned by spam assasin in my incoming mail headers. I'm sure I didn't miss any steps. Where should I look to try and fix this?
Many thanks
NTB
-
The spamfilter checks how the antivirus filter is configured and hooks itself in behind. You should save the Antivirus data first (in server-manager) and then the spamfilter. The RBLs via smtpfront will be overwritten by the spamfilter so configure that again.
-
I am running SME server 6.01 with the pagefault antivirus contrib installed. I was running Jespers previous Spamassassin script and at the weekend installed the new V3 one.
However instead of getting the reports sent to my inbox I get the following email....
"Illegal division by zero at /usr/bin/spamfilter-stats.pl line 233."
Could this be a problem with permissions somewhere? I had a look at the spamfilter-stats.pl script and could not make any headway with it.
I would be grateful for any help. My system does seem to be filtering spam and delivering mail all ok though.
Nick
-
Hi Nick,
I actually just got this error myself this morning and the fix is easy (until I release a new version).
open /usr/bin/spamfilter-stats.pl
go to line 233 and change the "if $total" to "if $spamcount"
my $above15percent = (($above15/$spamcount) * 100) if $spamcount;
Test it by running:
./spamfilter-stats.pl
-
Many thanks, that fixed the problem!! :-D
-
Hi Knuddi!
Thanks a lot for your contrib. It works very fine, but I've got the following:
I can't delete the following RBL's. It give's the message that they are deleted, but they are still in the list.
bl.spamcop.net
contacts.abuse.net
dynablock.njabl.org
relays.ordb.org
sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org
Where can I delete them manually?
thanks

One of the consequences of the RBL migrate bug :-)
You can delete them manually in /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3
Just leave the:

Has there been a bug in the rc3 version or is this a bug in the cron script?
Anyway the script works great and are killing more than 100 spam mails a day

SME server v6.0.1
Installed SA as per the first posting in this thread but the installation hung at the very last part. Seen the FAQ that made ref to firewall settings for Razor and Echo so I made the changes and attempted to rerun the install script but I now keep getting error 404 file not found errors. Any ideas what went wrong?
Thanks for any help.

Where in the script does it indicate that? Could you post or email the script output?

This happens if both the old version and the new version are available on Jesper's server. The update script kind of gets confused if it finds an older version, but doesn't really downgrade SA.
I saw Jesper removed the old version, so you shouldn't be seeing that message again.

Hi edb,
You are using a old script trying to download modules no longer there. Download the new spamfiler_install.sh script and try again.

To those of you that have problems in getting tagged emails either auto deleted or moved to the junkmail folder when configured in the panel.
I have not yet found out why and where my installations fails but if you enable procmail the hard way for all users you should be fine for now. This can be done this way:
1) Install UserPanel (if you do not already have it installed)
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/Userpanel/perl-Unicode-String-2.06-1.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/Userpanel/perl-Unicode-IMAPUtf7-1.02-1.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/Userpanel/e-smith-userpanel-1.6.0-3.noarch.rpm
2) Install Lat-tools
# rpm -Uvh http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/mblotwijk/Contribs/lazy-admin-tools/e-smith-lazy_admin_tools-0.9.0-1.noarch.rpm
3) enable procmail for all users
# lat-procmail -c "*|enable|no|some|normal"
-
Thanks Jesper that did the trick for solving my problems. Thanks again

I did a fresh Contribs SME 6 install this morning. Added a bunch of users with lat-users. And then installed Spamassassin and ClamAV with these great scripts. I then added my custom Spamassassin rules and --linted them to make sure they were ok with 3.0. There were a few minor problems like long descriptions but there was one problem I'm not sure has anything to do with my rules.
I don't remember the exact error message but it's something to the effect of "cannot parse rewrite_subject". Looking at the local.cf file I see "rewrite_subject" on a line with no value after it. For now I'm just deleting that line from the file but it comes back, as expected, every time I make changes in the spamfilter server manager panel. Any ideas where I went wrong in the install or how I might track down and fix the problem ?
-
Take a look at:
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
the rewite_subject verb requires an argument of either 0 or 1 (Yes or No).
It will rewite the subject line with the word SPAM if so configured.
A brief synopsis of this a few other salient settings can be found at:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/support/faq/email/spamassassin.html
HTH
-
Actually the rewrite_subject command has been changed in 3.0 to:
rewrite_header Subject [SPAM _SCORE_ of _REQD_]
-
Actually the rewrite_subject command has been changed in 3.0 to:
rewrite_header Subject [SPAM _SCORE_ of _REQD_]
I just read that in the 3.0 rc 4 release notes. So I'm wondering where rewrite_subject is coming from on a fresh SME 6 and spamassassin 3.0 install ?
I've deleted the local.cf file in the custom template directory and the rewrite_subject command is still showing up when I hit the save button in the user panel. I'm having some difficulty finding the template fragments that local.cf is built from. A clue here would be most helpfull.
-
Ok. The "rewrite_subject" with no value seems to be coming from /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3. What is used to create that file ?
[EDIT]
I did /sbin/e-smith/db spamassassin_V3 delprop conf.global rewrite_subject
and rewrite_subject is removed from the database file. But something is putting it back when I push the "save" button in the spamfilter panel.
[EDIT]
I found the offending line in the spamfilter server manager panel function and commented it out. I delproped rewrite_subject from the spamassassin_V3 database again and then tried the save button in the server manager panel. Rewrite subject is no longer showing up in the database or the local.cf file. Spamassassin --lint comes back clean now. Looks like the problem is solved.
Jesper, would it be appropriate to remove this line for future releases of your fine Spamfilter contrib ?
Am I the only person who --lint's new rules or am I just the only one worrying about the warning that pops up ?
-
Server is still encountering a few -pyzor <defunct> subprocesses sometimes (issue ps -A -H on commandline) but i do not see when and why they are triggered. The big bugger is: spamd eats up all the memory and restarting spamd takes a good 5-10 minutes.
-
Ray,
You are right the SpamFilter does actually write this in the local.cf file. I had removed it when I did a --lint but ?!?"?!? I will release a new version within days that will remove this via the templates (to ensure that all old installations benefit as well).
Thanks,
Jesper

All,
I have now released an updated version of the spam-filter that should remove most (if not all) of the issues noticed in this thread.

I do not understand why the stats are not distributed across all hours. I scan the /var/log/maillog file and use the dates listed there. Check the distribution of hours by doing a:
cat /var/log/maillog | grep spamd
with respect to the line 479 error then I am trying to determine who you want to download spamassassin updated via the USA script. I do not understand why the file should be read-only (/home/e-smith/altiplano)
Generally, then SpamAssassin V3 has been officially released and the install script will now install the final release. If you haven't updated the sme-spamfilter RPM to 1.0.4 then I would recommend you do so:
# rpm -Uvh http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/SpamFilter/sme-spamfilter-1.0.4-1.noarch.rpm

I was browsing this topic on my search for a solution for the problem that emails retrieved with fetchmail, were not scanned by Spamassassin (nor Amavis antivirus). I saw I was not the only one and that a solution had not been found yet.
I seem to have found a solution: together with Spamassassin I also have the antivirus panel from knudsen installed. I was 'playing' with the 'Scan incoming / outgoing email' settings and eventually noticed that emails retrieved with fetchmail are only scanned by Spamassassin / Amavis if 'Scan outgoing email' is set to Yes.
The only drawback of this solution is that every outgoing email is scanned, which takes some extra time. But I can live with this... :-)
-
After rebuilding my server from scratch (I'd upgraded it more times than I'd like to remember, and finally decided to start fresh and clean up things - particularly the email folder structure), I downloaded the current release of the SpamFilter and built it per Jesper's instructions. I also ran the commands to stop double bounce messages. Otherwise this is a stock 6.01 from the ISO image.
Anyhow, the error I get is this, as shown in my maillog:

This was from a sample spam - and what happens is the spam is identified but not sorted to junkmail like it should be. I'm assuming I need to fix permissions in the locations specified, but I'm not sure what they will need to be, or if that'll even fix the problem. Any pointers?

josht,
Did you install the spamfilter RPM? The install script within the RPM should set the permissions correct (at least that was the intention).
You can do it manually by:
# Since SpamAssassin is called via Qmail make sure that
# some directories are created via proper rights
/bin/mkdir -p /var/qmail/.spamassassin
/bin/mkdir -p /var/qmail/.pyzor
/bin/mkdir -p /var/qmail/.razor
/bin/chmod 755 /var/qmail/.spamassassin
/bin/chmod 755 /var/qmail/.pyzor
/bin/chmod 755 /var/qmail/.razor
/bin/chown -R qmailq:qmail /var/qmail/.spamassassin
/bin/chown -R qmailq:qmail /var/qmail/.pyzor
/bin/chown -R qmailq:qmail /var/qmail/.razor

Is there anyway to test if the rejecting works. Since installing RBL listing, i have never seen any reject message in the log file. I have now installed with knuddis script (great stuff), but the daily reports have never shown any rejecting either.
In MRTG i can see that i get about 6% spam, so there should really be some rejections or....??
Per
-
I installed via your script, so I'm assuming that the RPM was downloaded in the process - the filter is active and is marking spam, just not performing the distributed checks and moving it afterwards.
I ran the last six commands you gave manually - the directories already existed so I didn't re-create them. I'll see if that worked, because lord knows I get enough spam that I'll have an answer soon.
If you're taking feature requests, I preferred the old markup behavior from 2.5+, where SA added the extra header field rather than rewriting the subject line. It'd also be nice to see a feature for controlling the Bayes autolearning from within the SpamFighter web interface (maybe if the install script created a default training address?).
Other than this experience, your module has been a terrific help for me and I've used it in several other places - this has been the first difficulty I ever had with any version.
-
I tried both executing the commands you gave and re-loading the RPM, neither fixed the problem. Spam continues to be marked up properly in the subject line, but then it's delivered into the Inbox regardless of whether it scores high enough for auto-delete or not.

I have the same problem on my 2 servers.

My best suggestion to ensure that marked emails will be autodeleted and/or sorted is to manually enable procmail for all users.
Do you have the UserPanel installed? if so then install also the LAT tools
and do
# lat-procmail -c "*|enabled|no|some|normal"
LAT:
http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/e-smith-lazy_admin_tools-0.9.0-1.noarch.rpm
UserPanel (1.60 for SME 6.0.x):

Sorry i didn’t mentioned but the server is configured as a delegated mail server.

Sorry i didn’t mentioned but the server is configured as a delegated mail server.

And then (as you can read in the FAQ on my site) there can be no filtering done as procmail only works with local users.

Hi Jesper,
great work, i just have one wish.
I want to redirect spam messages to a specific mail accoutnt instead of the "junkmail" folder.
To do so i modified the "30_spamfilter_sort" templete:
--------------------
$OUT .= ":0\n";
$OUT .= "* ^.*X-Spam-Flag: YES\n";
$OUT .= "! junkmail\@mydom.com\n";
--------------------
Works fine.
Maybe in future versions, you can add this option also.
Thanks
Peter

I have been doing this for a while too and feel it would be nice to add as an official option.

Knuddi,
Using SME 6.0.1-01 with ClamAV installed from your site.
When installing spamfilter it gives me this error at the end.
ERROR: You cannot set a config record without a type.
Installation of SpamFilter complete.
I get this error when accessing the Spam Filter panel.
Spam Filter Settings
Software error:
Can't call method "props" on an undefined value at /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/spamfilter line
The file /home/e-smith/spamassassin_V3 is empty. I tried deleting it, stoping spamassassin, removing the spamfilter rpm and then re-installing. I get the same results as above.
Any Ideas?

Jesper,
I have installed your latest spamassassin contrib and it's working fine. In actual fact it does MORE than I expected, but not sure why.
My ISP blocks port 25 so I have been redirecting 2525 to 25, but this appears to not be necessary anymore...???
I have previously opened port 2525, and now taken the redirect off and my mail is still coming through (I am assuming at the wrong point in the chain). Which particular item is using port 2525 and what am I bypassing?
To get my particular setup working correctly, which config files do I need to change (happy to generate fragments and make it a configurable item if I know which ones...).
TIA

Hi Jesper

Just wanted to share the problems i fixed for myself
regarding the spammassassin problem
Everytime i wanted to save the panel i got a server error 500 this was due to the rpms from the devel directory on ibilio i installed.
When i installed the old e-smith-lib again the problem was gone.
So i replaced all rpms back to the original ones.
For the people that have double spam tags like
[*****SPAM*****(12.5 of 5.0][*****SPAM*****(12.5 of 5.0)] i tracked it down to the .procmailrc file in the user directory that contained the lines;
# The lock file ensures that only 1 spamassassin invocation happens
# at 1 time, to keep the load down.
#
:0fw: spamc.lock
Remove it and double tagging is gone.
Well this works for me, hope its helpfull

I'm running 6.01-01.. Hopefully some would be able to shed some light whether it is something that we have to worry about or not. Any inputs greatly appreciated!
Sincere regards and thanks!

Hi,
I have installed spam assassin and it is working no problems with fetchmail collecting mail from pop3 accounts. It tags spam subject line with the [SPAM 12.5 of 8.0] but does not sort the mail to the users junk mail or delete even when score it reached.
Is there any way to fix this, i have tried searching but not really found any answers.
I have the current vesion (29-10-2004) from Swerts-Knudsen.dk and calm AV all seems to be working fine, just doesent sort or delete.
Thanks for any help any one can give.
(That is really a great site and great work Jesper.)

I'm running into the same problems that peterb and deunan have.
I'm running SME 6.0.1 :-D
I've installed the last scripts for spamassasin and calamv from http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/
And this are the errors i'm getting from Crondaemon:

I have now changed my timezone from the one that my time server (tock.nap.com.ar was giving me ART as my time zone) was giving me to GMT-3 and disabeled the time zone. I did this because the error says that is unable to determine
I will post in a couple of days if something changes.

Everythig got really messy.. I'm using a Net time server so I got to change it to manual. I did it an I changed the time from ARG to GMT-3 That is the timezone of Argentina.
After that al my e-mail dates were 3 hours in advance of the current time. Checked and double checked the server time bat the server time was OK.
So, i coudn't wait for the cron jobs to run because this is my production server :-D and I already got my phone ringging asking why the time of evey mail in the company was wrong :hammer: .
So I'll try this in a few weeks when I have some time to set up a testing server.
In the mean time I'm still recveiving this two mails:
