The main reason that I haven't installed it yet is because it looks like mail is filtered at deliver time. I actually want to have mail scanned at the time that it is received.

update:
I guess I should clarify my post above. Since I run my spam and virus checker, throught amavisd all mail is scanned before delivery. In fact mail that is being relayed to a different server is being scanned. From what I read, it looks like DSPAM runs as the user for whom the mail is being delivered to using there settings. I need to be able to run this as a single user for all of my mail.

ReplyDeleteYou have to recieve the mail before it can be scanned. Just draw up your server/mail processes, then insert dspam where you think it will appear and we'll see if it's right or wrong. Dspam is inserted in the 'mail-loop' at the same place -every- other spam/virus/whatever filer/process would be inserted; just before the mail is sent off to the LDA (local delivery agent)
