procmail and forwarding

samek · 09-11-2005, 12:22 PM

Hello,

I have set up spamassassin and now i want to forward spam with procmail but it doesn't work. I have created ~/.forward and ~/.procmailrc and still doesn't forward spam into /dev/null..

My ~/.procmailrc

Code:

MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/
LOGFILE=$HOME/Maildir/.mail.log

# Catch SPAM
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
* ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*
/dev/null

And ~/.forward

Code:

   
     "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail || exit 75 #samek"

And i added a new line into /etc/postfix/main.cf:
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -a "$EXTENSION"

But it still doesn't work .. Does anyone know what i did wrong or i didn't do?

don't know about postfix cause i use exim
but this works for me in .procmailrc

Code:

# Spam Assassin

:0fw
* < 256000
| spamassassin

:0
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
/dev/null

You may want to look into this postfix configuration in main.cf:

Code:

header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks
