Unless, of course, that's really not a good idea because of the extra server load?
I found a threshold value of '500K' in /etc/exim.spamassassin.conf. If I change that value to for example 100K or 200K, then that changed value is used. But if I increase that value, the new value doesn't seem to be respected and the limit remains 500K.
I use exim with eximconf release 4.5, spamassassin and blockcracking. I don't use easy spam fighter at this moment.
Due to the huge increase in scams and phishing, I have started adding my own spamassassin rules. This works great and most spam is blocked. However, sometimes I see the same spam slipping through the filter because the spammers increased the email size to sometimes 3 to 4MB by integrating images... So I thought of raising the spamassassin email size threshold to about 5000K.
Any suggestions?
Best regards
