Spamassassin For Win32 Systems

[hschneider]

Thanks for the contrib!

[petlof]

Forgot to write that you need to change the two directory pointers in the beginning of sa_filter.pl
One for where you want your log-files and one for where you want to put temp-mail while the filter is working.

so change
my $XMAIL_LOG_PATH="c:\\MailRoot\\filters\\sa\\logs";
my $TMP_DIR="c:\\mailroot\\filters\\sa\\tmp";

So that they correspond to your system.

I try to install Spamassassin on win2k advanced server and I found an "XMSpamAssassinFilterInstaller.msi" file but when I run it
it ask me to install Xmail server or I installed it....

Thx

[hschneider]

Please contact its author. You are the 2nd one with that problem ... If he gets a lots of requests, he might fix it faster ...

Ok I install Spamassassin...
I put this ligne in filters.in.tab : "*"<tab>"*"<tab>"0.0.0.0/0"<tab>"0.0.0.0/0"<tab>"safilter.tab"
I put safilter.tab file in Filters directory
(safilter.tab: "c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\Program Files\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\sa_filter.pl" <tab> "-f" <tab> "-r" <tab> "@@RCPT" <tab> "-t" <tab> "@@FILE" )

Spamassassin works if I test it in commmand ligne (Ex : spamassassin -D -t < sample-spam.txt > spam.txt) but when I send a spam mail it do nothink....

I found my a solution :

It a Path problem ... because I have space in Path...
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\Program Files\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\sa_filter.pl --> c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\Progra~1\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\sa_filter.pl

Sorry for my stupide question

[hschneider]

Stupid questions don't exist ... BTW: You've found a solution for all nerved SA/Win32 users! Thanks!

[smago]

I forgot some one in sa_filter.pl change "Program files" to "Progra~1" if you path use program files directory

Ex:
my $XMAIL_LOG_PATH="c:\Program files\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\logs";
my $TMP_DIR="c:\Program files\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\tmp";

repalce by:
my $XMAIL_LOG_PATH="c:\Progra~1\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\logs";
my $TMP_DIR="c:\Progra~1\xmail-1.15\MailRoot\filters\sa\tmp";

Now I have some probleme whitch SA header I don't know why but I have an jump line between Mail header and spam header... conclusion spam header is merge
with message

EX:
mail message send :
hello this is a test !

mail after spamassasin :
Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=5.0
tests=none
version=2.55
X-Spam-Level:
X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp)

hello this is a test !

Spamassassin don't work with XMail 1.16 but it work with XMail 1.15. I think it's a Header probleme...

[hschneider]

The difference between these version are the filter return codes. They need to be adapted in SA and other scripts.

[smago]

it's true hschneider, return codes change return code 100 change to 7

if you want to use Spamassassin with Xmail 1.16 you must edit "sa_filter.pl"

Old line :
# We're always modifying the message because spamassassin will add some X-Spam- headers
# if it's spam or not.
exit 100;

new line:
# We're always modifying the message because spamassassin will add some X-Spam- headers
# if it's spam or not.
exit 7;

I modify sa_filter.pl

Hmmm, I just rebooted and now things work

sorry about that one

I'm on to the next problem now however... So if anyone knows why every newline now is turned into a double newline, let me know!

[bim]

I commented out
$checkedEmail=~s/(?<!\r)\n/\r\n/g;
which seems to resolve the double newlines...

Thanks to this thread I got spamassassin to work on Win2003.
Thanks very much!

But now I want more, but do not no how to get there:
I have spamassassin to mark spam as spam.
I want to move this spam to a sub-directory in the mailbox.
How do I do that?
