 |
|
Greetings,
I am trying to get Spamassassin working. I am following this guide.
The configuration on that page is very minimalist and that's how I want to start off. I can get progressively more complex as I learn more but I want to keep it as simple as possible for now.
According to that guide I only need to add 5 lines to my /etc/postfix/master.cf file
| Quote: | smtp inet n - - - - smtpd
-o content_filter=spamassassin
spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe
user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e
/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient}
|
Anyone know how to modify this so it works on Gentoo?

| From the point of view of Postfix that should work without any changes. |

okay, these are the 5 lines in my /etc/postfix/master.cf file. I will break down the problems one line at a time.
This doesn't work...
| Code: | | smtp inet n - - - - smtpd |
I need to use the default in the file...
| Code: | | smtp inet n - n - - smtpd |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This doesn't work...
| Code: | | -o content_filter=spamassassin |
My log says...
| Code: | | Jan 24 12:18:09 penguin postfix/master[11431]: fatal: /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 24: bad transport type: content_filter=spamassassin |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I see no problems with this line...
| Code: | | spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This doesn't work...
| Code: | | user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e |
My log says...
| Code: | | Jan 24 12:21:41 penguin postfix/master[11770]: fatal: /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 107: bad transport type: argv=/usr/bin/spamc |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This doesn't work...
| Code: | | /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient} |
My log says....
| Code: | | Jan 24 12:23:31 penguin postfix/master[11919]: fatal: /etc/postfix/master.cf: line 108: bad transport type: -oi |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyone know what to do? |

ok, I got it working. In /etc/postfix/master.cf...
These first two lines need to be all one line at the beginning of the file... | Code: | smtp inet n - - - - smtpd
-o content_filter=spamassassin |
These last 3 lines need to be all one line at the end of the file | Code: | spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe
user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e
/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f ${sender} ${recipient} |
