Where is Plesk 10 storing / configuring spamassassin?

Unread post by Galactic Zero »

My local.cf is pretty simple yet when I look at the spamd service I see this:

/usr/bin/spamd --username=popuser --daemonize --nouser-config --helper-home-dir=/var/qmail --max-children 5 --create-prefs --virtual-config-dir=/var/qmail/mailnames/%d/%l/.spamassassin --pidfile=/var/run/spamd/spamd_full.pid --socketpath=/tmp/spamd_full.sock

Fresh Server with pre-installed software (all below except dcc and razor)
Centos6 / Plesk 10.3.1 / psa-spamassassin / spamassassin / clamd / razor-agents / dcc / qmail-scanner .

Thanks,
Franklyn

I believe psa-spamassassin is doing that. Have you checked its init.d script?

I don't mix qmail-scanner and psa-spamassassin myself, because I think having an e-mail scanned by SpamAssassin once is enough and I prefer qmail-scanner.

Thanks, I'll look at that. Would you happen to know which one take precedent on the scoring/scanning? If it i s psa-spamassassin then it is moving the spam to a folder and I can grab those for training. This also might explain why spamassassin was not executable when I got the box and psa-spamassasin was.

I have no idea.

Qmail-scanner can also be configured to quarantine e-mail through the SA_QUARANTINE directive in /etc/qmail-scanner.ini. (Don't forget to run qmail-scanner-reconfigure after modifying /etc/qmail-scanner.ini.)

I did that in the past also, just got all the clients migrated to this new server and not ready to throw whats in place out the window quite yet. Just waiting to hear from them to see if there has been an increase in spam etc.

Thanks all for your feedback.
