[Bug 3256] New: A new feature for spamd
http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3256
Summary: A new feature for spamd
Product: Spamassassin
Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
Platform: Other
URL: http://www.shirleyfamily.net/spamdpatch/
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: spamc/spamd
AssignedTo: spamassassin-dev@incubator.apache.org
ReportedBy: bill@shirleyfamily.net
When changing my system to use courier-imap and virtual domains,
I encountered a problem with spamd. How could I get spamd to
process the new virtual email accounts? I tried --virtual-config-dir
but that created problems with existing users. I coded a patch
that adds a new config parameter called --virtual-config-account.
I now run spamd with these options:
-d -c -m5 -x --virtual-config-dir=/home/vmail/%d/%l/.spamassassin --virtual-
config-account=vmail
When spamc sends a username that is in /etc/passwd, the user is
processed as a real account. When spamc sends a virtual username
the virtual config directory substitution is made and the user id is
changed to the username given with the --virtual-config-account (in
my case "vmail").
Find the patch at the URL.
