HTML Filtering

[SpamAssassin <sp...@ctcministries.org>]

List:

I was wondering if SpamAssassin could be used to filter HTML emails and force execution of an external program to convert html to text.

I'm using SpamAssassin 3.0.1 with amavisd-new


Thanks in advance,

What is second colon ?. Don't quite see what it is ?.

Dpo I have to write :

:0 instead of :0: ?.

What is the difference ?.


--------------------------------------------------------------
What are lockfiles for anyway ?. I read a bit and I think I understood that
mails are sent back ????. Am I wrong ?.
Maybe I didn't understand well....

Actually, you remove this part.  A second colon on a line indicating the
start of a procmail recipe tells procmail to use a lockfile- which will
be named as indicated if you include a lockfile name as you've got here.

You can remove the second colon here;  no need to lock /dev/null for
writing.  <g>

Hitete, could you please stop posting new questions by replying 
to threads? You may not know it, but any decent client, 
including your IMP, puts information about that in the message 
and any other decent client will use that information for 
threading so one gets several topics cluttered in one thread. If 
you want to reply hit "Reply". If you want to ask a question hit 
"New message".

Thanks,


Kai

How do I prevent lock files

[hi...@free.fr]

How do I prevent lock files from being "used" ?
I get these errors in the logs :
---------------------------------------------------------------------
procmail: Couldn't determine implicit lockfile from "/usr/bin/spamc"
procmail: Lock failure on ".lock"
---------------------------------------------------------------------

What do I have to add in procmailrc to stop spamassassn from trying to create a
lock file ?.

here is my procmailrc :

LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log
DROPPRIVS=yes


:0fw:spamassassin.lock
* < 256000
| /usr/bin/spamc -f

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*
/dev/null

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
