Procmail HowTo

swamprat · 08-05-2007, 09:01 AM

I'm trying to use procmail in between SpamAssassin and Squirrel mail.

I can't seem to get the procmail statements right. When SpamAssassin places the following in the subject of the message, I want the message to go to a special folder.

This is what's in the subject line. ***SPAM***

I would like to get procmail implemented so as to put these kind of messages in a special spam folder

Would anybody out there show me how to set the correct recipe and guide me to a really good tutorial.

Suse 10.2.

Hi.

spamassassin also includes a header in processed emails. It's probably easier to use that to filter on (and in the unlikely event that someone sends you a non-spam message with ***SPAM*** as the subject, it won't get filtered).

This is what I'm using:

Code:

:0fw:
* < 256000
| /usr/bin/spamc

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
<insert spam folder here>
