MCP Error Fix

[Rose, Bobby]

Julian

Did you know the format for this option as a ruleset?  I haven't been
able to get it to work as ruleset (see my previous posts) and was hoping
for an example.  Also, I think it only logs actions if logging of
non-spam is turned on which is alot of extra logging and was wondering
if the logs for this function could be a separate option.

 
Thanks

That's about it, yes. A whole lot faster than MCP.
And I strongly advise you upgrade_MailScanner_conf.

SpamAssassin twice.

>> Julian,
>>         Is there any more documentation on the "Spam Assassin Rule
Actions"? I read the description, but I still don't entirely understand
how to use it in replacement of MCP. Also, I couldn't find the line in
my MailScanner.conf file, so I was wondering if this is in a newer
version of MailScanner? I'm running 4.60.8-1.
