This must be one of the most frequent requests from users of cPanel forwarders: how to scan incoming mail for spam before it is forwarded out via cPanel mail forwarders to external addresses.
Exim Configuration Editor | ACL Options includes this option:
SpamAssassin: Reject mail with a spam score greater than 20 at SMTP time.
That suggests that SpamAssassin is running at a server level at SMTP time (prior to forwarders), so is there a way to go further and have some account-level or user-level control to fine-tune SA via prefs/rules, rather than just a broad 20-score allow or disallow?
I have yet to see a definitive solution, so if cPanel staff could comment it would be appreciated. Even if cPanel staff were to say that it is not yet possible, at least that would be good information.
So, cPanel staff: is there any way to provide spam filtering on forwarded mail, filtering and marking the mail before it goes through a cPanel forwarder?
Thanks
