Ummm, one thing to note, we don't have spamassassin set to auto-kill anything, you have to setup some sort of filter on your end for that ... with Majordomo2, we have it as an access_rule, but I don't know how to do it with mailman ... ---- Marc G.

Yes, I noticed that while spamassasin marks email as spam, it still forwards it to the recipient. I had to add a rule in my spamassasin filter to delete those marked as spam. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [email protected] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 11+ messages in thread

I've got it working within Mailman, and it seems to be working well: the queue this morning has 2 spams and 1 real message, which is a vast improvement as the old ratio was more like 70:1. The dbdpg-commits list still seems stuck, however. I'm ccing the admin for that list as well. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [email protected] PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200602011046 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFD4NgfvJuQZxSWSsgRAjrgAJoDFtpvlTVgJhEJZFwgoJgig3tXgACg/Aai LEfNWPDs0voUizPnGYyfILU= =7eDn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 11+ messages in thread
