Wow, where have you been! -- SA is the biggest thing since PO's inception.  Ensure you are on the newest release (r721) and simply construct a body_filter as shown below:




Content-Type: image/tiff;
       x-unix-mode=0666;
       name="pastedGraphic2.tiff"
Content-Disposition: inline;
  filename=pastedGraphic2.tiff

Attachment converted: Green iMac:pastedGraphic2 3.tiff (TIFF/JFAX) (0015860C)

Here is my SA filter, where I'm excluding my RBL's and local domains.




Content-Type: image/tiff;
       x-unix-mode=0666;
       name="pastedGraphic1.tiff"
Content-Disposition: inline;
  filename=pastedGraphic1.tiff

Attachment converted: Green iMac:pastedGraphic1 9.tiff (TIFF/JFAX) (0015860D)


I had so much junk mail coming in before, I'm getting lonely!

This is why you send "copyto" your junk to: rbl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, spamass@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, etc., it let you check-out your spam when your are lonely!

Hahaha ... I thought it wasn't working because I wasn't getting any mail ... I had so much junk mail coming in before, I'm getting lonely! : c)

I don't have Spam Assassin? Where do you get that?

Sorry if I'm a little behind the curve here ....

Thanks again,

These seem to be working very well so far.

Great; I asked for the snapshot because I thought you said it was "not" working.

Now "exclude" these RBL from your SA filter; then SA will get what they miss. 

Since you are not sending a copy of a specified mailbox (ie: rbl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx), I assume you are reporting via the logs as to what is getting filtered?  Back when I was tracking this, I posted this note:

Aprox. 22,000 spams in the last 10 days with "zero" false positives; SA Running "out of the box", no white-list, etc..

sbl.spamhaus.org.........48.55%
bl.spamcop.net...........21.23%
spam_assassin............19.22% *not an RBL
dnsbl.njabl.org..........10.14%
spamguard.leadmon.net.....0.69%
blackholes.uceb.org.......0.09%
relays.ordb.org...........0.06%
rdts.bl.reynolds.net.au...0.03%

*Note: Spam Assassin sits behind these RBL's; ie: the (7) rbl's are excluded in the SA_Filter -- SA would get more spam if it were not setup this way.
