Well here's one way.
- I hacked the port Makefile to remove the dependency on razor-agents,
since I didn't want that or all the stuff which it drags in.
- I use the spamc/spamd variant of SpamAssassin.
- the mail gateways have no user accounts, they merely relay to
internal Exchange servers. Each user has an alias file entry like:
jim.hatfield: "|sa jim.hatfield@exchange-uk.isltd.insignia.com"
- /usr/libexexec/sm.bin/sa looks like this:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Pipe mail through spamc then route on via sendmail
# Get the envelope sender address from the "From " line
#
read from sender rest
{
echo "$from $sender $rest"
/bin/cat
} | /usr/local/bin/spamc | /usr/sbin/sendmail -f $sender -oi $1
- there's only one whitelist file in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
The double-queuing makes the mail log a bit more difficult to parse
but the benefit of being able to filter on a per-user basis (some
people insist that their mail isn't filtered, so they have aliases
which don't pipe their mail through sa) works for us.
