[qmailadmin-devel] Status of SpamAssassin integration

[Bill S. <hos...@sh...>]

Hello all... I've been out of the loop for a while, but need to add on 
to the existing "Enable Spam Checking" feature to also allow for 
optional deletion of spam.  But I'd like to keep it in step with the 
direction of qmailadmin development.  Is there yet a general consensus 
of how SpamAssassin integration will occur?

As of 1.0.23, it looks like the "enable spam checking" simply pipes the 
message through maildrop with /etc/mailfilter as the default filter 
file.  Has anyone looked at adding filter editing to qmailadmin?  There 
is GPL code available for this in SqWebmail, but I have not looked at 
it yet to see if it would be easily ported to qmailadmin.  But, it 
could be useful to keep qmailadmin's filter editing in line with 
SqWebmail's (although I don't use SqWebmail, perhaps a lot of other 
people do).

Short of adding maildrop filter editing to qmailadmin, spam deletion  
could be accomplished by having a second default filter, like 
/etc/mailfilter-delete that deletes the message (with a log message) 
rather than delivering it.  But this is more of a hack.

Thoughts?

Regards,

Bill Shupp
