7/16    Is there any way to auto-whitelist using spamc?
        \_ Put
        * ^From: (whitelist)
        whitelistfolder
        above your spamc recipe.
        \_ that's not auto-whitelisting
        \_ [ Non-AUTO-Whitelist solution removed ]
        \_ umm, why don't you rtfm. it depends on how you have spamd set up.
           \_ umm, I didn't set up spamd on csua.
              \_ spamd -a. but no spamd => no use of spamc.

8/12    Ugg, no spamd any longer?  I figured I'd have to just give up on my
        soda address (sad, very sad) but Vacation doesn't seem to be installed
        either, so I can't even leave a mesg. to people telling them where
        tom mail me now.  Or can I ?  Any advice out there.  Or can we get
        spamassassin/spamd reinstalled or Vacation or... help....

5/7     Dear csua, looks like /usr/bin/spamc and /usr/bin/formail don't exist
        on the emailer. I'm getting a bunch of binaries not found error
        on my .procmail-log.

8/11    Is spamassassin working?  Anybody using procmail with spamassassin?
        >spamc -R < /usr/share/doc/spamc/sample-spam.txt
        returns 0/0
        \_ It hasn't worked for me for about a month.

1/31    Can you give us any pointer for setting up spamassassin on csua under
        the new mail system?  TIA.
        \_ What I did is create a .procmailrc file in your homedir with the following

8/4     I just installed spamassassin using "apt-get install spamassassin"
        on my local machine, and spamd is launched. In my .procmailrc,
        if I run /usr/bin/spamassassin, is it smart enough to connect to
        spamd when it is running, and stand-alone when spamd is not running?
        \_ man-ing around, I'm going to guess that it's not smart enough.
           after all, that's what spamc is for. You may have to invoke some

11/27   Ever since the reboot today, "spamc" doesn't seem to be doing it's
        job.  Any idea what's causing this?

           I posted this. -op

1/11    How do I set up a spam filter without hosing soda with perl processes?
        (something running on soda, not in my Windoze e-mail client)  Thanks!
        \_ The best you can do is to run spamc (which uses the shared spamd
           daemon) instead of running spamassassin directly.

1/9     Why are people so antisocial as to hose soda terribly with
        spamassassin processes?
        \_ what is antisocial about using spamassassin?
           \_ People who don't use spamc, or are runing their own version of
              spamd instead of using the system process.
              \_ I used spamc and stopped when the spamd kept dying.

        100's of sendmail processes... same thing happend this morning at
        8am EDT. Someone just add some recursive procmail rule or some
        shit? This problem has been happening for a couple weeks but just

8/27    Is anyone else haveing a probllem w/ spamassassin not working since
        sometime late last night?
        \_ Yes.  I am using spamc.
        \_ Fixed.  Emailing root is the fastest way to get this resolved
           when spamd hozes itself -njh (root)

7/2     I notice that in my .spamassassin directory, there is a 5
        Meg file called bayes_toks.  I _do_ understand why it is there.
        But, there is another 5 Meg file called bayes_toks.expire84232.
        And there are 4 other bayes_toks.expire files of varying
        size.  Why are they there?  Can I delete them?  My spamassassin dir
        takes up nearly 13 Megs.  I gather that the expire files can be
