Cheers,
I can't seem to make this work... Suspect I'm not calling it right...
Assuming I've renamed functions in the routine from VirusScanning to SpamChecks
I call it via
Spam Checks = &SpamChecks
I get this in my logs...
Jun 1 08:44:54 server02 MailScanner[19947]: Config: calling custom init function SpamChecks
Jun 1 08:44:54 server02 MailScanner[19947]: Syntax error in line 1, value "" for spamchecks is not one of allowed values "yes","no"
So I assumed that the command line had to have the ruleset name following it so I tried
Spam Checks = &SpamChecks %rules-dir%/scan-spam.rules
(tried both with and without "" enclosing rule)
I then get...
Jun 1 08:48:08 server02 MailScanner[20134]: Config: calling custom init function MailWatchLogging
Jun 1 08:48:08 server02 MailScanner[20134]: Started SQL Logging child
Jun 1 08:48:08 server02 MailScanner[20134]: User's home directory /var/spool/postfix is not writable
Jun 1 08:48:08 server02 MailScanner[20134]: You need to set the "SpamAssassin User State Dir" to a directory that the "Run As User" can write to
Jun 1 08:48:09 server02 MailScanner[20134]: Using SpamAssassin results cache
Jun 1 08:48:09 server02 MailScanner[20134]: Connected to SpamAssassin cache database
Jun 1 08:48:09 server02 MailScanner[20134]: Enabling SpamAssassin auto-whitelist functionality...
And mailscanner restarts every few seconds... (SpamAssassin User State Dir is set and has been fine till now!)
What am I missing?

Ok, I've found the custom ruleset from function file... I think I can see roughly what's going on, but I've a couple of questions...
The $option is the external name of the config option... I can't seem to work out what this should be... (I'm using the custom function on the 'Spam Checks' config option, but that doesn't comply with what $option should be
How do I then specify what ruleset is then used?
The External name is the same as the MailScanner.conf name but with all in lowercase, with all spaces and punctuation removed, so in your case it's just "spamchecks".

Hmmm.... Simple, but neat :-)
Can you use a custom function and a ruleset at the same time?
Yes. Take a look in the example in the
/usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/CustomFunctions directory.
i.e. using the authenticated header check along with an ordinary
ruleset containing a list of whitelisted addresses?

Hi,
I don't suppose you'd be willing to share that custom function?
We'd
like to do the same, but the only way I can see to do that so far
is to
have postfix include the SASL login username in the header which
I'm
loathe to do if I can really avoid it.

Why not ?
The first idea comes from the list so I could post it again.
But first, thanks to Julian for his quick answer.
