How do I stop spamd from checking outgoing messages

Postby ah4279 » Fri Jan 20, 2006 3:27 pm

I am wondering if there is a way to stop spamd from processing a message if it was originated inside my network. I thought the "-i 192.168.0.0/24" flag to spamass-milter would take care of it but it appears from my /var/log/maillog that all messages are from "127.0.0.1" no matter where they are coming from.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to only scan incoming messages for spam?

Hi. First, go into /etc/mail and copy sendmail.cf to something like sendmail.nosa.cf:

Code: Select all

cd /etc/mail
cp sendmail.cf sendmail.nosa.cf

Next, edit sendmail.nosa.cf and remove all of the Spamassassin milter lines that were added from Tech Note. Now, go into /var/opt/scalix/sys and edit the file unix.mapper and change the line that starts with "transport-service =" to:

Code: Select all

transport-service = /usr/sbin/sendmail -bs -C /etc/mail/sendmail.nosa.cf


which tells Scalix to hand the message off to sendmail using the sendmail.nosa.cf file (the one with No Spamassassin info) rather than the sendmail.cf file.

Thanks,
Rachel
