[Dovecot] using postfix+dovecot+squirrell+amavisd and spam folder per user
Hi All,
As I say in the subject I use postfix, dovecot with squirrellmail as webmail and amavisd as spam control,
My problem is that all the spam I catch is send to /var/lib/amavis/virus but I want to send this mails to the spam folder of each user.
This way the user can see the mails and determine if they are really spam or false positive.
I dont know exactly what element of the system is the responsible to do that (dovecot, amavis, posttix)
any suggest? (although only be the initial point to look for it)
Thanks in advance

Hi, I would suggest you to use dovecot LDA (local delivery agent) and sieve for mail sorting. Mail gets tagged by amavis/antispam and dovecot LDA (run by postfix) places the junk mail to right folder based on your sieve match on various headers.

Hi Karel,
Thank you very much for your answer,
I´m going to investigate lda as you say
In deed, I´m looking at my dovecot.conf and I realize I have this entry:
protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster@dominio.com mail_plugins = quota log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log }
I don´t know what is this for, but I´m going to investigate it.
On the other hand, I use mysql and virtual domains, is your answer valid for this kind of configuration
thanks again,
ESG

Yes. It is valid for virtual domains and SQL.
My dovecont.conf:
protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster@somedomain.tld hostname = host.somedomain.tld #postfix SASL auth auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master #plugins mail_plugins = cmusieve quota #change of default .dovecot.sieve sieve=~/dovecot.sieve }
Have look on managesieve as well.
