• Linux - User Profiles

    By Reid J Canavan 2 decades ago

    In linux, the -u parameter will not work as it is reliant upon the parameter matching to a linux account name. I have been trying to figure out why the spam identification has been very poor and was able to isolate it down to that parameter.



    I have removed this parameter and will report back on the spam scoring to see if there is any improvement.



    As a side note, linux is capable of using per user configurations, however, an SQL (most likely MySQL), will need to be set up for bypassing the local account name lookup.

    • Linux - SPAMD and reporting spam acceptance

      By Reid J Canavan 2 decades ago

      On SUSE Linux Enterprise Server the default arguments for spamd is to not accept TELL commands. This removes the ability for the system to learn when being told to see messages as spam or not.



      To get around this, change the/etc/sysconfig/spamd file to show the following:



      SPAMD_ARGS="-d -c -l -A 127.0.0.1"



      This will daemonize, allow local user preferences, accept TELL commands, and only accept connections from the localhost.
