Hi

How to remove spamassassin from the server. I don't want to change current themes - I just want to completely remove it from the server.

Please HELP!

It actually is working quite well now, if you've followed previous threads/bugs....

If you want it dead, first remove this line from exim.conf:

command = /usr/bin/spamassassin -w $sender_address

Lock exim.conf (chattr +i)
....................
Then..... remove the &.spamassassin& placeholder file in the root of every cpanel account that has activated it, just in case.

Finally, wax the Mail::SpamAssassin perl module
(from within your .cpan directory structure and perl 5.6.1 structure)... that's up to your server.

And lastly.... chmod 0000 /scripts/installspam
chattr +i /scripts/installspam

Restart exim and that's golden.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/exim restart

:p

thank you :)

BTW, all previous threads about spamassassin bugs can't help me as I still have this error.

i hate spamassassin and don't like such sort of software to be installed on my server!

Define &this error&
it might be better to try to tackle it now rather then prevent updates just so you can avoid one particular component.

Are you sure you ran killndbm ?? The first line in that script is going to remove the .so file you are refering so.. I'm not sure how it can load a file that doesn't exist...

/scripts/killndbm can't delete NDBM_File.so file. :)

ok. Finally i had to manually delete it (usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux-ld/auto/NDBM_File/NDBM_File.so )

It works now.

BTW, I sent 10 spam emails and received 1 warning only
Very useful script :) :)

You might want to adjust your ~/.spamassassin/* files
