how do i disable procmail

[bustthis]

i’m really starting to hate procmail, but i forget how to disable it and still use spamassassin. i took this out of my master.cf-
procmail unix – n n – – pipe
flags=R user=cyrus argv=/usr/bin/procmail -t -m USER=${user} EXTENSION=${extension} /etc/procmailrc

and changed the the mail transport back to cyrus in the main.cf… am i missing something obvious? spamassassin no longer filters my mail with procmail!

i am using amavisd + clamav + spamassassin… i followed your article awhile back and somehow got mixed up with procmail. i followed davids article on setting up procmail and cyrus. i now want to take procmail out of the mix, i can’t remember exactly what else i did and was hoping someone can help me. i took out the procmail transports in my postfix files, but spamassassin isn’t scanning my mail.

i’ve not changed anything, does this look right?

smtp-amavis unix – – y – 2 smtp
-o smtp_data_done_timeout=1200
-o disable_dns_lookups=yes
127.0.0.1:10025 inet n – y – – smtpd
-o content_filter=
-o local_recipient_maps=
-o smtpd_helo_restrictions=
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=
-o smtpd_sender_restrictions=
-o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8

hmm, even reloaded spamassassin… damn that procmail!!!!

maybe i will start over, are there any advantages to using the new amavisd in your new article? i am currently using amavisd-new-20030616 and clamav 0.75

i’m not sure why it’s not working, if i take out the procmail lines in main.cf and master.cf, amavisd lines are in both files.

looking at my logs, amavisd and spamassassin scan my mail –
i see spam_scan: hits= and SA check:, etc… but in mail.app it’s not adding the spamassassin headers anymore… it was with procmail and i haven’t changed anything. spamassassin -D –lint tells me it’s reading from /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and allowing my users_prefs in my users directories. is this something in the amavisd.conf i’m missing?

sorry to waste your time 🙁

it’s been awhile since i was using amavisd without procmail… just out of curosity, does amavisd add the X-Spam-Checker-Version header? this is what is throwing me off 🙂

i have searched the amavisd mail list and only see settings for v. 2.0

thanks,

well,
don’t cry man and use google! stop the amavisd deamon using

#amavisd stop

and start it in Spamassassin debug mode:

#amavisd sa-debug

. This way you will really see, if the connection is working or not.
Speaking about the headers, there is a directive always_add_headers or such, otherwise they are not included.

i’ll try not to cry… 🙁

i found my mistake, but thanks for rubbing it in…

[bustthis]

i was looking in the wrong place… it’s not in /etc/amavisd.conf

if you want to add the X-Spam-Checker-Version header, just uncomment these lines in /usr/bin/amavisd:

# $hdr_edits->append_header(‘X-Spam-Checker-Version’,
# sprintf("SpamAssassin %s (%s) on %s",
# Mail::SpamAssassin::Version(),
# $Mail::SpamAssassin::SUB_VERSION, $myhostname));
