automating sa-learn via cyrus mailbox?
i've been thinking again, so to avoid doing something dangerous
i thought i run it past y'all'uns-- :)
we're running cyrus21 and exim4 for email services, and would
like to automate the "sa-learn" feature system-wide.
so why not create a "user.spam" cyrus mailbox, BOUNCE any spams
there and have cron do some sort of automated "sa-learn --spam"
on the results, and then delete them?
anybody doing anything like this? got code i could sniff before
i work up my own wheel from scratch?
====
also -- sa-learn appears to work based on the shell user's home
~/.spamassassin/* files, and our cyrus setup is non-shell-user
heaven. do we have to "su - $spamassassin_user" before
"sa-learn" will work the way we want? haven't been able to track
it down in black-and-white yet...

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #111 from Alvin Oga <aoga@Maggie.Linux-Consulting.com>
:
HOW TO MAKE DEBIAN MORE SECURE:
1. turn off everything in inetd: sunrpc, printer, unknowns,
netbios, finger, time (comment-out lines in /etc/inetd.conf
or later versions in xinetd.d/*)
2. you need to verify that you are running bind-8.2.3 or better
3. turn off ftp (especially anonymous ftp)
4. if you allow users to upload files... make them do it it with scp
5. for more hardening stuff, see http://www.Linux-Sec.net/
and for generic debian security updates be sure you have
these in /etc/sources.list:
http://security.debian.org/debian-security stable/updates main contrib non-free
http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free
