Hi everybody, I thought this might be useful for you just as it is for us. I wrote a small script that works as a filter between an MTA and otrs and filters spam and viri before they hit a queue. Sorry if anybody else came up with this idea before, there's no seach available in the archives :-) The script requires SpamAssassin and ClamAV installed in daemon mode. See http://www.spamassassin.org and http://www.clamav.net for more info. It should be pretty easy to modify the script so it doesn't rely upon daemon mode for both programs. --- Name it 'spamclam.sh' and put it into /home/otrs --- #!/bin/sh # This script takes a mail from STDIN, runs virus and spam scans # on it and if it passes, pipes it into $ARGV[1]. Otherwise # writes it into otrs-virusbox or otrs-spambox respectively. # # Written by Michael otto . Released under GPL. HOME=/home/otrs TMP=/tmp cat >$TMP/mail.tmp.$$ VIRUS=`clamdscan --disable-summary --stdout $TMP/mail.tmp.$$ | grep FOUND` if [ "${VIRUS}" == "" ]; then SPAM=`spamc -u otrs -r < $TMP/mail.tmp.$$` if [ "${SPAM}" == "" ]; then cat $TMP/mail.tmp.$$ | $1 else cat $TMP/mail.tmp.$$ >>$HOME/otrs-spambox fi else cat $TMP/mail.tmp.$$ >>$HOME/otrs-virusbox fi rm $TMP/mail.tmp.$$ --- Now patch your alias file which pipes the mail into PostMaster.pl like this: local_part: "|/home/otrs/spamclam.sh /opt/otrs/bin/PostMaster.pl" --- Regards, Michael -- Michael Otto, Dipl.-Inform. epublica Internet-Technologie: Konzeption, Produktion, Wartung Wartenau 8 D-22089 Hamburg michael.otto@epublica.de http://www.epublica.de Tel. +49 (0)40/4109879-1 Fax +49 (0)40/4109879-9
