Q: Amavis Not Marking Mail as Spam

Hi,

I've been going round and round with this for weeks now and despite following everyone's advice, I cannot get the mail server to mark spam, as spam.

We've setup two local users, junk and not junk and have fed thousands of messages into the junk folder. We've then manually ran the learn junkmail script and it seems to finish ok.

Amavis.conf is set with the following:

$satag_leveldeflt = -999; # add spam info headers if at, or above that level
$satag2_leveldeflt = 1.0; # add 'spam detected' headers at that level

Junk messages come in with the following headers:

There doesn't seem to be a log file for amavis although there is a folder filled with stuff at /var/amavis

It's infurating not being able to get this to work! Would anyone be able to help please?

Thanks in advance,

Simon
