Hello,
Spam to my e-mail address has recently exceeded my tollerance level and
I am now looking in to implementing spam checking, I am however having
some trouble configuring exim4 to use the BitFolk shared SpamAssassin
service.
Currently I have done the following in attempting to configure my mail
server to use SpamAssassin, per the documentation at [1]:
- Replace exim4-daemon-light with exim4-daemon-heavy
- Add "spamd_address = 212.13.194.5 783" to
/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template.
- `update-exim4.conf -v` (this indicates /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template
is used).
- `/etc/init.d/exim4 restart`
I then send a test message via a foreign mailserver I have access to,
however no spam checks are made. I checked /var/log/exim4/maillog and
it does not show any references to attempting to contact a spamd
server.
Does anyone have any pointers regarding how I can troubleshoot this, or
anything I am doing wrong?
Thank you,
