 Posted: Wed Apr 27, 2005 1:51 pm Post subject: Only alias-asdresses are scanned by Spamassassin [solved] |
 |
|
I had a thread running about this but noone
seems te read it anymore. Meanwhile I discovered something new in the issue so I decided to start a new thread.
I have a mailserver running Postfix, Courier-IMAP, Amavisd-new and Spamassassin.
The problem is that only alias-adresses are scanned by Spamassassin. For example, if I have this line
in my /etc/mail/aliases:
| Code: |
scanned: notscanned
|
you'll see that scanned is an alias that puts the mail into the mailbox of account notscanned.
Every email send to scanned@mydomain.com will be scanned by Spamassassin and spam will be intercepted.
However, every email send to notscanned@mydomain.com (an actual account) won't be scanned.
Does anyone know what causes this???? 
Thanks!

Looking more close to the problem, it seems that only the virtual domain adresses are scannend.
So the aliases found /etc/mail/aliases aren't scanned either.
With virtual domains I mean these Postfix options
| Code: |
virtual_alias_domains = visserijnieuws.nl urkerland.nl
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
|
So why are the virtual domains scanned and the primary domain adresses aren't??
I really hope someone can set some light on this...

Thanks to a suggestion on the Amavisd-new mailinglist I managed to finally
solve this nasty issue. It turned out that my primairy domain somehow was listed in the bypass_spam_checks list.
Someone on the mailinglist suggested to increase the loglevel (thanks mark!) to get more information. After doing so I saw this:
| Code: |
lookup (bypass_spam_checks) => true, "devnull@gbugroep.nl" matches, result="1", matching_key="gbugroep.nl"
|
I know, this sounds *very* dumb. But somehow it happend and it took me weeks to find the solution 
Hopefully, someday, someone might find this thread usefull
