Scalix-Postfix-Amavis-Spamassassin-Junk Mail Box

Hi,

I have a Scalix installation, with Postfix, Clamav and Spamassassin, and have used the Howto : http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... te_Postfix. Scalix look to work fine and spamassassin too, but I have only a little issue. When I use the test email to try the spam filter, the mail is trapped by spamassassin and amavis, ant put it in my /var/virusmails directory. This way I don't have any trace of this email.

I want to change this behavior to get it in my Junk mail file include in Scalix. How can I do that?

Thanks for your help.

I think the two options you want to look at is "$sa_kill_level_deflt" and
"$final_spam_destiny " in the /etc/amavisd.conf file.

The sa_kill tells amavisd when to perform evasive actions on spam, and the final_spam tell amavis what actions to take. So you can either raise the score required for the current action or you can just set the action to allow, or both.

i.e.

Code: Select all

$sa_kill_level_deflt = 15;
$final_spam_destiny       = D_PASS;


This would tell amavisd not to perform the final action until a score of 15 and that the final action should be to pass the mail to the recipient(s).

I believed that the default behavior was to only identify spam. Effectively the line '$final_spam_destiny' was commented.

Thank you for your help(assistant), everything works well now
