10 Install Razor, Pyzor And DCC And Configure SpamAssassin

Razor, Pyzor and DCC are spamfilters that use a collaborative filtering network. To install Razor, Pyzor, and DCC, run

urpmi perl-Razor-Agent pyzor dcc

Then initialize Razor and Pyzor:

chmod -R a+rX /usr/share/doc/pyzor-0.4.0 /usr/bin/pyzor /usr/bin/pyzord
chmod -R a+rX /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyzor
chown amavis:amavis /var/spool/amavis/
su -m amavis -c 'pyzor --homedir /var/spool/amavis discover'
su -m amavis -c 'razor-admin -home=/var/spool/amavis -create'
su -m amavis -c 'razor-admin -home=/var/spool/amavis -register'

Now we have to tell SpamAssassin to use these three programs. Edit /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf so that it looks like this:

cp /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf_orig
cat /dev/null > /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
vi /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf

# dcc
use_dcc 1
dcc_path /usr/bin/dccproc

#pyzor
use_pyzor 1
pyzor_path /usr/bin/pyzor

#razor
use_razor2 1
razor_config /var/spool/amavis/razor-agent.conf

#bayes
use_bayes 1
use_bayes_rules 1
bayes_auto_learn 1

Then we must enable the DCC plugin in SpamAssassin. Open /etc/mail/spamassassin/v310.pre and uncomment the loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DCC line:

vi /etc/mail/spamassassin/v310.pre

[...]
# DCC - perform DCC message checks.
#
# DCC is disabled here because it is not open source.  See the DCC
# license for more details.
#
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DCC
[...]

You can check your SpamAssassin configuration by executing:

spamassassin --lint

It shouldn't show any errors.

Run

/etc/init.d/amavisd restart

afterwards.

Now I want to insert some custom rulesets that can be found on the internet into SpamAssassin. I have tested those rulesets, and they make spam filtering a lot more effective. Create the file /usr/local/sbin/sa_rules_update.sh:

vi /usr/local/sbin/sa_rules_update.sh

#!/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

exit 0

Make the script executable:

chmod 755 /usr/local/sbin/sa_rules_update.sh

Then run that script once, it will fetch those rulesets and insert them into SpamAssassin:

/usr/local/sbin/sa_rules_update.sh

We create a cron job so that those rulesets will be updated regularly. Run

crontab -e

to open the cron job editor. Create following cron job:

23 4 */2 * * /usr/local/sbin/sa_rules_update.sh &> /dev/null

This will update the rulesets every second day at 4.23h.

11 Quota Exceedance Notifications

If you want to get notifications about all the email accounts that are over quota, then do this:

cd /usr/local/sbin/
wget http://puuhis.net/vhcs/quota.txt
mv quota.txt quota_notify
chmod 755 quota_notify

Open /usr/local/sbin/quota_notify and edit the variables at the top. Further down in the file (towards the end) there are two lines where you should add a % sign:

vi /usr/local/sbin/quota_notify

[...]
my $POSTFIX_CF = "/etc/postfix/main.cf";
my $MAILPROG = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t";
my $WARNPERCENT = 80;
my @POSTMASTERS = ('postmaster@yourdomain.tld');
my $CONAME = 'My Company';
my $COADDR = 'postmaster@yourdomain.tld';
my $SUADDR = 'postmaster@yourdomain.tld';
my $MAIL_REPORT = 1;
my $MAIL_WARNING = 1;
[...]
           print "Subject: WARNING: Your mailbox is $lusers{$luser}% full.\n";
[...]
           print "Your mailbox: $luser is $lusers{$luser}% full.\n\n";
[...]

Run

crontab -e

to create a cron job for that script:

0 0 * * * /usr/local/sbin/quota_notify &> /dev/null
