[TriLUG] Viewing quarantine items by spamassassin

[Michael Hrivnak]

Stephen,

I have a somewhat similar setup.  I use postfix with spamassassin, but I
don't have an explicit quarantine procedure.  I simply have spamassassin
check email and mark it as spam where appropriate, but it still gets
dumped into my inbox.  Then I filter it client-side into its own
directory so it stays out of my way.  I suppose I should mention that SA
is running on a local server that receives my email and serves it via
imap, thanks to Mandrake 9.1.

When I get false positives, the original emails are simply attachments
to the spam report, so I just drag-and-drop the attachment back to my
inbox.  I also use sa-learn periodically to give SA a taste of what sort
of spam and non-spam I get.

Michael

Hi there,

I've installed sendmail, Mailscanner and spamassassin which I've sset to
store spam messages.  I have recieved one or two false positves in my
quarantine folder.  How do I go about administrating and view these
messages
with the optio of forwarding false positives. Any one with this kind of
setup.

Thanks
