PostFix configuration
Hello

I'm new in this forum so I don't know if this is the correct page for my question.
We have a server ,running RedHat 3, with installed Postfix 2.2.11 with Amavis , SpamAssassin and ClamAv.
This server is used by several years without problem.

Now we have some some problems with spam/bounced messages and we have the necessity, if possible , to send forwarding errors ( in case of errors during forward of messages to some mailling list we have configured ) only to a local mail system administrator on our system , so that this person can verify/fix the problem.

I have seen that in the master.cf file there is a line in which we can decide what to do with bounce messages ( default operation is "bounce" ).
We have set it to "discard" but i don't think this is the correct solution - in this case simply postfix deletes the bounce message.

Also, when relaying authenticated mail, we need to add the authenticated user as a
header in the relayed mail.

Please, can you help me with this problems / configurations?

Thank you

mail::spamassassin::plugin::phishtag

Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::PhishTag(3) 		User Contributed Perl Documentation		   Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::PhishTag(3)

NAME

       PhishTag - SpamAssassin plugin for redirecting links in incoming emails.

SYNOPSIS

	loadplugin     Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::PhishTag

	trigger_ratio	 0.1
	trigger_target	 RULE_NAME  http://www.antiphishing.org/consumer_recs.html

DESCRIPTION

       PhishTag enables administrators to rewrite links in emails that trigger certain tests, preferably anti-phishing blacklist tests. The plugin
       will inhibit the blocking of a portion of the emails that trigger the test by SpamAssassin, and let them pass to the users' inbox after the
       rewrite. It is useful in providing training to email users about company policies and general email usage.

OPTIONS

       The following options can be set by modifying the configuration file.

       o   trigger_ratio percentage_value

	   Sets the probability in percentage that a positive test will trigger the email rewrite, e.g. 0.1 will rewrite on the average 1 in 1000
	   emails that match the trigger.

       o   trigger_target RULE_NAME http_url

	   The name of the test which would trigger the email rewrite; all the URLs will be replaced by http_url.

DOWNLOAD

       The source of this plugin is avaliable at: http://umut.topkara.org/PhishTag/PhishTag.pm a sample configuration file is also available:
       http://umut.topkara.org/PhishTag/PhishTag.cf
