Topic: Question: SpamAssassin logs (or equivalent)?

First off, a massive thanks for iRedMail. Fantastic resource .

Quick question: Does SpamAssassin/Amavis (?) log email that is classified as spam at all? If so where? If not, is there a way to enable such logging?

TAIA.

Re: Question: SpamAssassin logs (or equivalent)?

It's not clear what your "log" means.

Amavisd will log a line in Postfix log file to indicate the processed mail is clean or spam (or virus, etc), is this what you want? If you mean save a copy of spam email, then no, default iRedMail setting doesn't save a copy.

But you can configure Amavisd to quarantine detected spam/virus/banned/bad-header (even  clean) emails to SQL database, then manage them with iRedAdmin-Pro. FYI:

Hello,

Does Amavisd log to the Postfix log by default? I want to check if mail from a specific domain has been rejected. The content is not important at this stage. Is this enabled by default? If not, how?. And how does one set up iRedMail to save a copy of spam?

Thanks again.
