Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Some mails not scanned by SpamAssassin 3.4.1 w sendmail/procmail on Fedora 21 Post 302979269 by RobbieTheK on Thursday 11th of August 2016 10:01:39 PM
Old 08-11-2016
I believe I figured it out. Turns out the user has his own sendmail server running on a Linux Fedora 22 workstation. So although we are scanning hisname@ourdomain.com spammers have been finding hisname@machinename.ourdomain.com. So I added SA to his workstation and spam detection is much better. And we also set masquerade_entire_domain in sendmail.cf/mc. Hope this helps someone.
