I am pleased to announce the first public release of
'bsa_filter.pl' - a SpamAssassin xmail filter written in perl.
The script is a modification/upgrade of Don Drake's sa_filter.pl.

Please be aware that this script is 'beta' and it should be carefully
tested before being thrown into production.

The script and documentation may be found at:

http://xmail.beaucox.com

Davide - can you put a link on your site pointing to my site with a
description of something like:

<a href="http://xmail.beaucox.com/">bsa_filter.pl</a> - a perl SpamAssassin
filter with configurable spam message forwarding and/or trashing.

A snippet of the documentation:

NAME
bsa_filter.pl - an xmail SpamAssassin filter.

DESCRIPTION
bsa_filter.pl is an xmail mail server filter to process incoming
messages through SpamAssassin. It is based on Don Drakes's script -
sa_filter.pl, version 1.3. The following enhancements to his work were
made:

Rewritten using perl oo package/class
This was mainly done to make intra-module communication easier.

Configurable forwarding
Spam messages may be forwarded to an administrative email account
for review/blacklisting/whitelisting/etc. based on a settable spam
score threshold.

Configurable trashing
Spam messages above a settable spam score may be summarily trashed.

Enhanced log
The spam log has been enhanced: additional fields have been added.

PREREQUSITES
The follwing modules should be installed:

xmail
A running xmail mail server. See the "CONFIGURATION" section below
for changes that must be made to filter exit codes for older
versions.

Mail::SpamAssassin
I have tested only with version 2.63; the filter should/may work
with earlier versions that do not have major operational changes.

Net::SMTP
Found in perl module libnet; I use libnet 1.18.

CONFIGURATION
....

Aloha => Beau;

Bye,
Harald

This one is recommended otherwise it won't scan all messages under heavy load. -------------------- Bye, Harald -- Download XMail Queue Manager 1.46 NOW: XMail Server Tools -- Cross platform remote queue management! -- Message analyzing on the fly! -- Builtin diagnostics knowledge base! -- Manages multiple mail queues!

Group: Admin Posts: 6631 Member No.: 195 Joined: 19-June 02	The script still contains a bug from Don's original one: Headers of non SPAM mails include wrong line endings. This should be fixed as soon as possible. -------------------- Bye, Harald -- Download XMail Queue Manager 1.46 NOW: XMail Server Tools -- Cross platform remote queue management! -- Message analyzing on the fly! -- Builtin diagnostics knowledge base! -- Manages multiple mail queues!
