this is interesting. i have an /etc/default/spamassassin that reads like
this (relevant portions):
# Change to one to enable spamd
ENABLED=1
# Options
OPTIONS="-F 0 -m 3"
as you can see, i have enabled spamd. the other options are for some
from header (this i borrowed directly from dman site) and -m 3 restricts
child processes to 3. this prevents too much build up of system load.
i also read the documentation. it mentions that per-user settings is a
security risk if spamd is run. so, i will prefer not to allow per user
settings although i am the only user of the system.
what file to i edit if per user settings are not allowed?
thanx for your help. i am only one answer away from getting spamassassin
to work the way i want to.
one last question - this may be off topic. i am sure, there will be
several newbies like me who face the same problem on setting up
spamassassin. is there a website where i can post my experiences, hoping
they are useful for others?
