bz2, sm-mta, spamassassin, mimedefang

[Derek Davies]

Hi!

I'm using lire to process my sendmail log on a FreeBSD machine.
FreeBSD keeps yesterday's full log file in /var/log/maillog.0.bz2 .

Is there a way to have lire uncompress the log for processing?  I've
had to hack lr_cron so that it looks for $preprocessor and
$postprocessor like so:

    for f in $jobs
    do

	test -r "$f" || {
	    echo >&2 "$PROGRAM: file '$f' from joblist lr_jobfiles_$period not readable" &&
	    exit 1
	}

	. $f

	test -n "$preprocessor" || {
	    `$preprocessor`
	}

	test -r "$log" || {
	    echo >&2 "$PROGRAM: logfile '$log' from '$f' not readable" &&
	    exit 1
	}

	test -n "$filter" || {
	    echo >&2 "$PROGRAM: jobfile '$f' didn't set filter" &&
	    exit 1
	}

	lr_run $filter < $log | \
	  lr_run lr_log2mail -s "$subject" $superservice $service "$to" $flags

	test -n "$postprocessor" || {
	    `$postprocessor`
	}

    done


And set the extra vars in email.daily.sendmail.1.local .  This is ok
but I wonder if there's a way that will stand upgrades.

Also, I have spamassassin set up using sendmail's milter interface.
When I reject spam it shows up in maillog, not with 'sendmail\[' but
instead with 'sm-mta\[';

Are there service defs for this or do I need to create my own?  It
seems like simply counting lines with 'reject=554' would suffice.

Thanks,
Derek
