Before an upgrade awhile back things worked nicely. The goal is to have spam go to baddies@localhost.
Here is an entry from my log file, which got the mail sent to me and to baddies. | Quote: | Apr 18 12:39:54 mon amavis[19531]: (19531-01) Passed SPAM, [82.195.128.132] [82.195.128.132] <dayzers@a
llroundmailling.com> -> <mom@mathalacarte.com>, quarantine: baddies@localhost, Message-ID: <20060418114
644.v228odjw6qsk80c4@82.195.128.132>, mail_id: AIaTHHI0f70a, Hits: 2.463, 1607 ms
Apr 18 12:39:54 mon postfix/smtp[19566]: 9F43D1D9453: to=<mom@mathalacarte.com>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.

I suspect the problem is from this block in amavisd.conf, but it seems the documentation is too much for me. | Quote: | #$sa_tag_level_deflt = 2.0; # add spam info headers if at, or above that level;
# undef is interpreted as lower than any spam level
$sa_tag2_level_deflt = 2.0; #6.1 ;# add 'spam detected' headers at that level to
# passed mail (e.g. when $final_spam_destiny=D_PASS
# or for spam_lovers or when below kill_level)
$sa_kill_level_deflt = 2.0; #$sa_tag2_level_deflt; # triggers spam evasive actions
# at or above that level: bounce/reject/drop,
# quarantine, and adding mail address extension
$sa_dsn_cutoff_level = 9; # spam level beyond which a DSN is not sent,
# effectively turning D_BOUNCE into D_DISCARD;
# undef disables this feature and is a default;
|
While I'm at it, I have | Quote: | $sa_spam_level_char = '+'; # char for X-Spam-Level bar, defaults to '*';
|
with the thought that perhaps I would get some idea of the spam level when I look at messages. Perhaps this line | Quote: | $sa_spam_subject_tag = '***SPAM*** '; # (defaults to undef, disabled)
|
overrides the spam_leve_char?? Thanks,
Fred |

I'm seeing a problem with the latest version (2.4.0) too where spam is now always passed. The area you quoted sets the levels by which actions occur. The actions themselves--D_PASS,D_REJECT,D_DISCARD used to be stored in the *_destinay variables, but are now stored in the *_ccat mappings ( i.e. final_destiny_by_ccat ). Although I have all the CC_SPAM mappins set to D_DISCARD, all spam is still passed to the recipient. The example conf file ( /usr/share/doc/amavisd-new-2.4.0/amavisd.conf-default.gz ) has additional mappings the gentoo-installed version does not, but I'm not sure if this is a gentoo conf problem, a problem with the new amavisd-new 2.4.0 release, or a problem with some other field I'm not setting.
$sa_spam_level_char and $sa_spam_subject_tag are used in two different places. $sa_spam_subject_tag changes the subject line of the message only when spam is passed on ( D_PASS ) to the recepient. $sa_spam_level_char sets a header field (X-Spam-Level) within the mail message that is sort of a "meter" display.
The headers would allow client-side ( ie in Firefox filter) filtering.
Here are some example headers--you have to look at the "raw" email to see these.
X-Spam-Flag: YES
X-Spam-Score: 11.56
X-Spam-Level: ***********
X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=11.56 required=3.5 tests=[BAYES_99=3.5,
FORGED_RCVD_HELO=0.135, HTML_90_100=0.113, HTML_BACKHAIR_8=0.282,
HTML_MESSAGE=0.001, HTML_NONELEMENT_40_50=0.126,
HTML_OBFUSCATE_40_50=2.64, INTERRUPTUS=0.182, MIME_HTML_ONLY=0.001,
MISSING_SUBJECT=1.816, MSGID_FROM_MTA_ID=1.393,
UPPERCASE_75_100=1.371]
These descriptions may help quoted from the conf file:
# tag_level controls adding the X-Spam-Status and X-Spam-Level headers,
# tag2_level controls adding 'X-Spam-Flag: YES', editing (tagging) Subject,
# and adding address extensions,
# kill_level controls 'evasive actions' (reject, quarantine);
# it only makes sense to maintain the relationship:
# tag_level <= tag2_level <= kill_level < dsn_cutoff_level < quarantine_cutoff_level
In short, the only problem I'm having with 2.4.0 is the unconditional passing spam mail. |

| Commenting out all the final_destiny_by_ccat settings in the /etc/amavisd.conf file seems to stop the spam from always being passed through, and the old behavior of using $final_spam_destiny is honored. I also commented out the $final_destiny_by_ccat{XXX} settings below the final_destiny_by_ccat hashes. Simple fix for now. |
