MIMEDefang + Sendmail on Fedora
This describes how to install the MIMEDefang milter and integrate it with Sendmail and Scalix 11 on Fedora Core 7 (haven't tested on any other platforms yet. Note: this does not describe how to modify or otherwise get MIMEDefang running.
Install the MIMEDefang milter (it is included in FC7 repositories by default):
yum install mimedefang (if you want/need to try and install mimedefang without using yum, then visit MIMEDefang's website to download and see instructions)
Start the mimedefang service:
service mimedefang start
(you might want to make that happen on boot up: chkconfig mimedefang on)
Edit the sendmail.mc file:
define(`MILTER', `1')dnl define(`confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL', `6')dnl INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=unix:/var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.sock, F=T, T=S:1m;R:1m;E:5m')dnl
rebuild the sendmail.cf file:
make -C /etc/mail
edit your smtpd.cfg file in /var/opt/scalix/NN/s/sys/ (where NN is first and last character in your hostname):
place the following line above the RELAY accept 127.0.0.1 line:
SMTPFILTER=TRUE
Tell MIMEDefang to change subject line
In your /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter file find this line:
md_graphdefang_log('spam', $hits, $RelayAddr);
and add right below it:
action_change_header("Subject", "[SPAM] $Subject");
If you'd like to test your rules, then you can issue the following command:
service mimedefang configtest
Once you're happy, tell MIMEDefang to re-read the configuration file:
service mimedefang reread
Add a new spam rule
log in to the Scalix rules wizard (either through SWA under Tools or by going to http://yourscalixdomain.com/Scalix/rw
add a new rule that specifies a condition that looks for [SPAM] in the subject line and moves the message into the Junk E-Mail folder (use whatever folder you wish to store your spam).
Restart services
service sendmail restart omoff -wd 0 smtpd omon smtpd
