Half the spam I get doesn’t even have any content… the rest are just from some weird email address with a dodgy subject, and are plain-text, so my local Bayesian spam filter picks it up easily.
Can you be more specific than that, Alex? More effective in general “out of the box”? Easier to configure. I guess I’m asking for why (in detail) you think we should replace SA with this (having two antispam programs would probably be confusing).
From my minor experience with it (I’m not running it on an iworx box, mind you) I’ve noticed a dramatic decrease in spam that is able to get through with little to no configuration. So yes, it could be safe to say that it works better than SpamAssassin out of the box.
Yeah, I hope that InterWorx will add DSPAM. Also for DSPAM you must keep SpamAssassin.
I know a company that is using DSPAM and all customers are very statisfied with it.
Also when your email address is: dave@mydomain.com and you got a spam on that mail. Just forward that mail to: dave-spam@mydomain.com and it will me rejected the next time
I have a client using an exchange server and they get a lot of image / pdf spam with little or not content in the email. I believe this is going to get more common as time goes on so its good to know there is stuff out there to fight back.

[quote=tiger;14860]So, you say dspam could help with image spams?[/quote]I guess not only with image spams. DSPAM works much better then SpamAssassin. You must configure SpamAssassin with DSPAM. Then you can forward spam mail to yourusername-spam@yourdomain.com and the next time it will be deleted.
And there is a webinterface off DSPAM what you can install if you want. Take a look on there site, I think there are more people that like DSPAM.
Example: Take a look on DirectAdmin forum, you can find much things about DSPAM. Also check the screenshots here
I searched on Google… and I found a nice thread about DSPAM with QMAIL.
When I have more time, I will try to install DSPAM with QMAIL, after the installation I will let you know if it works great, and if the installation is easy or not.
