Qmail Scanner, SpamAssassin & PSA-Spamassassin
Posted: Wed Jul 14, 2010 6:01 pm
Hi All,
I am running a Plesk 8.6 box (Centos 5) with qmail, qmail-scanner, spamassassin (art), clamav and psa-spamassassin and having some difficulties with weirdness that seems to be caused by psa-spamassassin.
The reason we added psa-spamassassin was that we had a few users that wanted to set their own spam filter settings (which seems to be working).
The strange behavior is as follows:
-trying to have spamd log to a separate file and it just won't use the option. Does not matter if I add it in the qmail-scanner.ini or in /etc/sysconfig/spamassassin spamdoptions. If I uninstall psa-spamassassin it seems to work just fine and logs to the separate file, so psa-spamassassin seems to be ignoring what is placed in either of these files.
-spamd never seems to spawn more than 2 children in spite of the fact it is configed for 5.
A side issue, as I don't think this is related to psa-spamassassin is that for the first time ever, we are getting outbound e-mails sent by our clients marked as spam. (If we whitelist (in local.cf) them, that seems to take care of it but is there a better option - we have several hundred different domains we would have to whitelist. I was actually going to try to configure the logging to a separate file to do some debugging when I noticed the above issues showing up.
Is there a proper way to set up qmail-scanner with psa-spamassassin, that I am missing? I followed some directions posted in this forum that were confirmed by some additional sites found in searching the Internet.
Any help, tips or pointers would be much appreciated.
