Finally got Spam Assassin working
Posted by: | CommentsSometimes I feel pretty stupid — this week was one of those times. I’ve been running my server without Spam Assassin because I really didn’t need it. However, lately it’s become necessary, so I decided to set it up.
Right away it started picking up spam email and marking it correctly. Then it started marking emails spam that really wasn’t spam. So I setup the Junkmail and Notjunkmail email boxes so I could train the Bayesian filters.
But it didn’t really work. Then I realized that there was no cron job setup, so the damn thing wasn’t learning anything. I downloaded Spamtrainer ran the fixes and the rules and everything is running fine now.
Why Does Windows have to be so stupid!
Posted by: | CommentsI sat there this afternoon looking at my daughters Dell wondering why the hell it had to be so difficult to join a wireless network. A Mac is so easy — turn it on and it finds the network for you. That’s it, nothing else.
That was one hell of a nasty update!
Posted by: | CommentsI like to keep the server as up to date as possible, usually waiting a few days to update after Apple releases a fix or Security update. Since I was on vacation for a week and traveling the three weeks before that, I missed the last Security update for Mac OS X Server. I can tell you now, I wish I was still missing it!
