ConfigServer Community Forum

MailScanner analyze each message and each condition give point, if the total point is over the spam value it will be check as spam.

That is great, but we need a document that explain each condition (the names doesnt give us any idea of what they are).

I also interest if the full report is include in the message and not only the total points.

configserver doesn't write the rules, SARE does. You can do a search for each rule in Google and find out what they mean. Normally, once you know what one or two mean, the rest are easy.


Here is a good way to find out what the codes mean. Take any message you have and view the source. Copy that to a text file and upload it to your server and call it spam.txt. Then run this:

spamassassin -D < spam.txt

SA will report back all of the info and what it means.

If you have our MailWatch Front-End installed you can get a list of all the SA rules installed on the server and their descriptions under the Tools menu within MailWatch.

I have MailScanner FE, these are the message I found.

Not all description are clear, for example: URI_NOVOWEL URI
How can we include this detail in the message, so my clients can check wat happend.

URI_NOVOWEL URI is the rule name, not the description. In Mailwatch, I found the following under rule descriptions:

URI_NOVOWEL URI hostname has long non-vowel sequence
