Problems with allot of spam!

[brafi]

Hi

I have used VestaCP for some weeks now, but I get allot of SPAM on my mail.

I have set up SpamAssassin, but don't know if it works?

Can someone please tell me how to get this to work?

Hi,

Can you show your exim config, please? It's possible that the minimum rating to be marked as spam is just set very high.

SPAM score is set to 50?

Need more info? See: https://nc.jfich.dk/index.php/s/yQ3PNPOb8A8Prs2

a spam score of 50 is very high. I assume vesta puts it this high to prevent false positives by default and requiring the user to manually change it.
The recommended default value of spamassassin is 5.

you might want to keep an eye on your logging after changing it though, just to be on the safe side :)

Thank you.

I have changed the value to 5 and now just waiting to see if it helps.

Where can I see the log, you are referring to?
In the vespa controle panel?

i'd keep an eye on the exim log and look for any rejected messages:
tail /var/log/exim4/mainlog -f
or
grep reject /var/log/exim4/mainlog

Thanks. :-)
