Tárgy: [exim] DSPAM + exim4 HOWTO, revisited

So since I had a few difficulties setting up DSPAM on exim4, I decided to post
my configuration as a mini-HOWTO of sorts.

This is basically a combination of Troy Engel's HOWTO plus Adam J. Henry's
BSMTP transport. See:

http://dspam.nuclearelephant.com/dspam-users/2676.html
http://www.exim.org/pipermail/exim-users/Week-of-Mon-20040809/074946.html


My main hangups with the above configs were permission problems on my
Fedora Core 3 box. Instead of running as mail:mail, I needed DSPAM and
Exim to run as exim:mail, because otherwise it could not read the mail
spool or write to logs when exim was called again to deliver the mail.

The following setup will use DSPAM in BSMTP mode like Adam described. This
means that DSPAM doesn't have to be compiled with the correct location of
exim, nor does it have to be suid mail, since it does not call exim, but
instead is called by exim with the privs you specify in exim.conf.

Like Troy, I also found it necessary to chain SpamAssassin to feed mail it
classifies as SPAM back to the DSPAM corpus learner. This has helped minimize
the complaints I received from my users while DSPAM got up to speed on their
mail spools, and also helped DSPAM to learn quicker.

Lastly, I added more aliases to support users sending not just missclassified
mails, but also corpus mail to DSPAM.

Note that I prefer my DSPAM aliases to be in the form of username-XXX instead
of XXX-username.


Here are the relevant routers. In my exim.conf I place them right after the
dnslookup router and before the system_aliases router, so that all aliased and
procmail filtered mail still gets scanned. The header flags are used just as
Troy's config used them.


BEWARE that all exim.conf directives must occupy a single line. If your mail
client inserted any \'s or otherwise broke the long lines, reassemble them.

------------------- BEGIN ROUTER SNIPPET ---------------

# Spam assassin router:
sa_router:
no_verify
check_local_user
# When to scan a message :
# - it isn't already flagged as spam from DSPAM
# - it isn't already flagged as spam from Spamassassin
# - it isn't already scanned
# - it isn't local
# - it isn't from one internal domain user to another
condition = "${if and { {!def:h_X-FILTER-DSPAM:} {!def:h_X-Spam-Flag:} {!eq {$received_protocol}{spam-scanned}} {!eq {$received_protocol}{local}} {!eq {$sender_address_domain}{$domain}} } {1}{0}}"
driver = accept
transport = sa_spamcheck


# DSPAM router
dspam_router:
no_verify
check_local_user
# When to scan a message :
# - it isn't already flagged as spam from Spamassassin
# - it isn't already flagged as spam from DSPAM
# - it isn't already scanned

condition = "${if and { {!def:h_X-Spam-Flag:} {!def:h_X-FILTER-DSPAM:} {!eq {$received_protocol}{local}} {!eq {$sender_address_domain}{$domain}} } {1}{0}}"
headers_add = "X-FILTER-DSPAM: by $primary_hostname on $tod_full"
driver = accept
transport = dspam_spamcheck

# spam-username
dspam_spam_miss_router:
driver = accept
local_part_suffix = -spam
transport = dspam_spam_miss

dspam_spam_corpus_router:
driver = accept
local_part_suffix = -spamcorp
transport = dspam_spam_corpus

# nospam-username
dspam_false_positive_router:
driver = accept
local_part_suffix = -notspam
transport = dspam_false_positive

dspam_clean_router:
driver = accept
local_part_suffix = -clean
transport = dspam_clean


----------------------- END ROUTERS ----------------------------


The transports can be placed anywhere in the transport section, since they are
"called" from the appropriate router. Note that I use the more modern DSPAM
3.0 command line options, which are more descriptive and allow for all 4 types
of training data.

Also, just to round out the experience, here are some mutt keybindings:


macro index S "bYOURUSERNAME-spam\ryd"
macro pager S "bYOURUSERNAME-spam\ryd"
macro index U "bYOURUSERNAME-notspam\ry"
macro pager U "bYOURUSERNAME-notspam\ry"

macro index X "bYOURUSERNAME-spamcorp\ry"
macro pager X "bYOURUSERNAME-spamcorp\ry"
macro index A "bYOURUSERNAME-clean\ry"
macro pager A "bYOURUSERNAME-clean\ry"


S and U are for reporting missclassified messages, and X and A are for
submitting previously unseen spam and normal mail, respectively.
