If you upgraded to 1.0beta, you could do this:

passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/anon.passwd } passdb pam { } userdb passwd-file { args = /etc/anon.passwd } userdb passwd { }

Where /etc/anon.passwd contains something like:

anonymous:{PLAIN}:1000:1000:,,,:/home/anonymous:/bin/false

Ok, thanks for the reply, and the suggestion. It's a production server, so I guess I'll just find another solution.

I was just looking for a way to my users to feed the SpamAssassin autolearn feature, when some SPAM managed to come through. Anonymous IMAP was a nice idea as a central SPAM folder repository for everyone; from which I could regularily feed the SpamAassassin autolearn feature.

I guess I'll just have to find something else.

Cheers, Vincent

I use sendmail, but probably something similar could be done using other MTAs. I created a fake "spam" alias which simple feeds any incoming e-mail to the spamassassin autolearn program: The alias looks like this:

spam: "|spamassassin -x -r", "/var/spam/spam.log"

This makes also a copy of all spam to the "spam.log" mbox. For this to work you need a working bounce command in your mail client software.

I thought about it; but in such a case, the headers doesn't remain intact. Original headers will be most likely removed by the MUA, while new ones will be added instead.

Isn't SA learning from the headers as well ?

Thanks. Vincent
