I apologize for dumping all of my questions on the list at once but I am stuck in one other place. After setting up spamassassin to work with MailScanner I am working on razor, pyzor, and dcc. I have MailScanner set to use them with the following MailScanner.conf entry:
# paths to utilities
pyzor_path /usr/bin/pyzor
dcc_path /usr/local/bin/dccproc
# Uncomment the lines below to stop using the specific service
# To stop Razor2 checks, uncomment the following line
# use_razor2 0
# To stop DCC checks, uncomment the following line
# use_dcc 0
# To stop Pyzor checks, uncomment the following line
# use_pyzor 0
# The timeouts for blacklists and Razor are rather generous in the
# default state that SpamAssassin is shipped. Reducing these
# stops a lot of timeouts from removing SpamAssassin scores
# altogether.
rbl_timeout 20
razor_timeout 10
pyzor_timeout 10
I downloaded and installed the rpm's for all three packages from urpmi. The above entries are pretty much the MailScanner defaults. Is this all I have to do? Do I need to set up any auto updating or configure these three packages initially? Please forgive the newbie question but I can't seem to make much sense of the documentation on these three individual packages. Mail is being delivered through the gateway properly so I assume there aren't any configuration issues. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks again!
