Now we want some rules for spamassassin to do a better job.

First edit /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf. Comment out "dcc_path /usr/bin/dccproc"  (this is a workaround, please contribute to this if you can).

Next do:

cd /root

wget http://www.fsl.com/support/Rules_Du_Jour.tar.gz

tar -zxvf Rules_Du_Jour.tar.gz

cd rules_du_jour

mkdir /etc/rulesdujour

cp config /etc/rulesdujour/config

cp rules_du_jour /usr/bin

cp rules_du_jour_wrapper /etc/cron.daily

cd /etc/spamassassin

mkdir old

mv *.cf old

/etc/cron.daily/rules_du_jour_wrapper

sa-update

Now make the last command a cron job, say once a week.

Next do:

ln -s /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf /etc/spamassassin/mailscanner.cf
