Hi,
I have problems trying to disable spam virus scanning for outgoing mails. It happens that by enabling the option for MYUSERS basically shutdown all spam/virus checking in my server:
I've edited /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user and added the bypass options under $policy_bank
...
$policy_bank{'MYUSERS'} = {
[... DEFAULT CONFIGURATION HERE...]
# don't perform spam/virus/header check.
bypass_spam_checks_maps => [1],
bypass_virus_checks_maps => [1],
bypass_header_checks_maps => [1],
}
...
To my surprise, I started noticing a lot of emails coming through which even grandma would recognize as spam and having the "Always insert X-Spam-* headers" enabled in iRedAdmin-Pro and not seeing anything related to SPAM checks in emails headers told me that something had gone really wrong.
Can anyone give me a hint as of to where start looking to make sure that disabling spam virus scanning for outgoing mails does not completely disables external domains email checks?
