Hi - I'm somewhat a newbie as a mail server administrator so if this is
a stupidly obvious question please dont flame!
I have a working qmail and spamassasin system. mails coming in get
passed through spamassasin and all is working ok. Meanwhile there are a
number of accounts which fetchmail is set up to go and get and pass them
on to local accounts on the server. The problem is that these mails
fetched by fetchmail appear not to be going through spamassassin at
all!:( I read the documentation but was unable to find what i was
looking for and googling didn't help much either.
As i understand it fetchmail delivers by smtp so in theory this _should_
be going through qmail. I checked to see if there was some rule saying
"dont spam locally generated mails" but was unable to spot it (i may
have been looking in the wrong place). This is a really frustrating
problem and i must say it seems beyond me:(
I can post any configuration files or logs that anyone feels would be
helpful.
thanks,
John Allman
