4.23. How do I use SpamAssassin with Mailman?

There are 3 ways.

1. Integrate it into the MTA, such as described in FAQ entry 6.12 at Mailman + postfix + amavisd-new HOWTO (anti-spam).

2. Add "GLOBAL_PIPELINE.insert(1, 'SpamAssassin')" to your mm_cfg.py file. See http://www.jamesh.id.au/articles/mailman-spamassassin/. [see note below]

3. Using procmail to execute spamassassin before handing the message to mailman. (see rest of FAQ entry).

From a post to the mailman-users list by Dave Stern <dave@umiacs.umd.edu> on 26 Feb 2003. Edited to use default paths. Edited to use better procmail rules.

Note that as of  Dec 19, 2008, James Henstridge's solution (method #2 above), is out of date when used with recent versions (>=2.1.10) of Mailman.  The following Patch to Henstridge's SpamAssassin.py may be required.

Begin Message

Seeing how others have asked about this, I've gotten an older version of mailman (2.0.12) and spamassassin (2.1) working together. Let's say we have two lists, one called mylst, the other mylist2:

add to you aliases file

  mylist:     "/usr/bin/procmail -m /etc/procmailrc"
  mylist2:    "/usr/bin/procmail -m /etc/procmailrc"

Note: procmail will need to be in your smrsh directory.

/etc/procmailrc include things like

:0f
 | /usr/bin/spamassassin

 :0:
 * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
 /tmp/Likelyspam

 :0
 * ^TO_mylist@domain.com
 |/etc/smrsh/wrapper post mylist

 :0
 * ^TO_mylist2@domain.com
 |/etc/smrsh/wrapper post mylist2

End Message

The second method will work with any version of mailman given that the wrapper call is correct. For mailman 2.0 /etc/smrsh/wrapper

For mailman 2.1 /etc/smrsh/mailman

Under Debian, relplace /etc/smrsh with /var/lib/mailman/mail or possibly /etc/mail/smrsh depending on your sendmail config.

Q: What if one does not have command line access to mailman, can one still use spamassassin with mailman?

A: Yes but you would probably have to set up a pretty fancy forwarding scheme. Moderated messages getting forwarded to an administrator whose .procmailrc sent them to spamassassin...
