Hi,

Ive been using Spamassassin and found that its tagging all legetimate mail and its begining to annoy me no matter what threshold I use it still tags it.

so ive decided to just not use it.

How do I go about uninstalling it?

OS is centOS 4.4 64Bit

thanks.
 
We've never uninstalled it; we just turn it off.

First find in exim.conf this code:
Code:
# Spam Assassin
#spamcheck_director:
  driver = accept
  condition = "${if and { \
                       {!def:h_X-Spam-Flag:} \
                       {!eq {$received_protocol}{spam-scanned}} \
                       {!eq {$received_protocol}{local}} \
                       {exists{/home/${lookup{$domain}lsearch{/etc/virtual/dom
               } {1}{0}}"
  retry_use_local_part
  transport = spamcheck
  no_verify
and comment it all out so it looks like this:
Code:
# Spam Assassin
#spamcheck_director:
#  driver = accept
#  condition = "${if and { \
#                       {!def:h_X-Spam-Flag:} \
#                       {!eq {$received_protocol}{spam-scanned}} \
#                       {!eq {$received_protocol}{local}} \
#                       {exists{/home/${lookup{$domain}lsearch{/etc/virtual/dom
#               } {1}{0}}"
#  retry_use_local_part
#  transport = spamcheck
#  no_verify
Then restart exim.

Does this line commented when enabled spamassassin?
#spamcheck_director:

I always uncomment this line, or do I wrong?
 
Thye #spamcheck_director: line needs to be uncommented, or commented out as well. I'm sorry for the confusion.

Need some help here, after i install the spamassassin, i can't get any mail in my inbox!

I have tried to disable the code above, but seems like not working also

2008-11-13 03:23:48 1L0LJc-0005Wf-6O Completed

I guess the above log means email delivered right? but i can't see it in my inbox.

What i done earlier is,
1. install spamassassin with
cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./spam.sh

Anyway I can stop the spamd and spamc from running or uninstall the spamassassin?

Thanks
 
You can keep it from working by doing the edit I've put into my message #2 in this thread, above.
