Currently, what no mail scanner can do, is scanning the message in its POST-PROCESSED form.

It's all about cleaning the spam. THEN, it would be very easy to filter that out.
OMG. THIS MailServer is a serious mess. Ok, volunteers please:

I really need someone that

1) Has extensive sendmail knowledge, and can install / configure sendmail for all the domains / users on this server properly (coz the config is a mess and all over the place, especially the userpermission of the spooler files ...

2) Configure the IMAP. What i really would like to do. Have two specific IMAP folders. One that low-scoring spam gets written into (between 5 and 10 spamassasin score) and one for highscoring (above 10)

3) Someone that knows MailScanner better than I do (because most of the time is just take a good guess and hope it works ...

4) Someone that knows how to PROPERLY configure spamassassin so that its integrated in MailScanner properly.

If ANYONE is up for the challenge, please post here or email me or whatever.

Regards,
Sebastian
