Hi,
Our server has several pop email accounts -already for a few years, all without any (major) issues.
Some time ago my own pop account started to receive excessive spam emails and I enabled SpamAssassin with an initial score set at "5", subscribed to a new SPAM folder that has started to receive SPAM (and show the emails in the spam folder with the [spam] prefix in webmail/user/spam.
But because I noticed that my BlackBerry as well as MS-Outlook were still getting a significant amount of spam (150 every night, 50 more during the day), I reduced the SA score settings gradually to the setting I have right now, 1.8.
I also added an account level filter for my account as per "spambar>contains>**>is delivered to..." the above mentioned spam folder. After browsing this forum, I decided to populate the white-list of SA with known domains.
All in all, the result is barely noticeable! In fact, it almost looks as if the SPAM email is "by-passing" the SA spam-folder and delivered "as is" in my BlackBerry and MS-Outlook inboxes (without the [spam] pre-fix). Btw, the other accounts in this same domain are not affected (eg, do not receive the amount of spam).
What do I do wrong or did I overlook in cpanel or SA? Any other known solution?
Thx in advance for a solution!
