retrieving quarantine spam

[Alex Neuman]

"Affects the users". Effect is what follows a cause. Affect means "to do something to". It's also "personal effects". Sorry about the spelling nazism but it's a pet peeve :)

Thanks Alex, I put the rule set for 127.0.01 in spam.whitelist.rules and
works. It didn't work when I used the rule set scan.messages.rules though as
I thought it would skip the spam test, may be not.

(When you said  webmail messages won't be scanned)
I have webmail clients but if it effects those users, it would be only for
outgoing correct? 

John

You need to create a rule so that messages sent from localhost don't get
scanned. 

One problem with this might be that if you have web forms or webmail those
messages won't be scanned.

Alex,
That sent the message through the spam filter again so it created another
quarantine message. It didn't reach the user mailbox.

Sincerely,

 John Win

Try "formail -s sendmail -v user < message"

Could someone point me into right direction on how to retrieve or release
spam from quarantine?
I don't have MailWatch yet, so just looking for a way to manually retrieve
into a mail client.

I tried      cat ./Mailscanner/quarantine/spam/20100701/*  >> ./mail/user
	But my mail client doesn't seem to recognize it.	

Thank you all in advance,


My quarantine setup is as below..

Quarantine User =
Quarantine Group =
Quarantine Permissions = 0600
Quarantine Infections = yes
Quarantine Silent Viruses = no
Quarantine Modified Body = no
Quarantine Whole Message = yes
Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = no


------------------------
Mailscanner 4.79.11-1
Spamassassin 3.3.1-2
Sendmail 8.14.3
Dovecot 1.2.11-3
-------------------------

Sincerely,

 John Win
