SpamAssassin - redirect based on Subject ?




Posted by expatCanuck, 11-12-2011, 12:09 PM
Greetings - Since my host disabled BoxTrapper, I encounter a LOT more spam during the day. I'd like to create one or more rules to delete (or at least redirect) email if the Subject field contains a known trigger word or phrase. For example, I'd like to redirect all email whose Subject line contains 'jewelry' to (e.g.) spamCatcher@myDomain.com. I can't find any .cf files in my site files via cPanel's File Manager -- all I seem to have access to is the /.spamassassin/user_prefs file. If anyone couldI'd really appreciate it. [Yes, I have reviewed the relevant apache.org SpamAssassin pages, but they're geared to Admins with more complete 'nix access -- I seem to be limited to what I can access via (my admittedly limited knowledge of) cPanel.] Thanks kindly, - Richard

I think you can do what you want without SpamAssassin . Take a look in cPanel->"account level filtering"-> create a new filter , and there you just redirect the messages with 'jewelry' subject to an email address.

1 I'm using Account Level Filtering and route all the spam and suspected email to the junk folder of my primary email address. With this, I only have to check one email account for spam.
