-F file
--config=path
configuration file to read additional command-line flags from.
| -u un
--username=un
Use per-user-config files, run spamc as the user whose config files spamd should
load; by default the effective user-ID is set to spamd.
| -L type
--learntype=type
Send message to spamd for learning.
type is spam, ham or forget.
The exitcode for spamc will be 5 if the message was learned, or
6 if it was already learned.
| -C type
--reporttype=type
Report or revoke a message to one of the configured collaborative filtering databases.
The type is either report or revoke.
spamd must run with --allow-tell or this is ignored.
| -r
--full-spam
If the message is spam output the SpamAssassin report to stdout .
If the message is ham (non-spam), nothing will be printed.
The first line of the output is the message score and the threshold, in the format:
score/threshold
| -R
--full
Output the SpamAssassin report text to stdout, for all messages.
| -l
--log-to-stderr
Send log messages to stderr, instead of to the syslog.
| -y
--tests
output the names of the tests hit to stdout, on one line, separated by commas.
| -c
--check Set exitcode to
- 1 if message is spam,
- 0 if not spam or processing failure occurs.
Display score/threshold to stdout (as integers) or 0/0 if there was an error.
Implies --exitcode.
| -E
--exitcode
Filter according to the other options, set the exitcode to 1 if message is spam, 0 if
not spam or processing failure occurs.
| -x
--no-safe-fallback
Disables 'safe fallback' error-recovery, which passes through the unaltered message if
an error occurs.
Instead, exit with an error code, and let the MTA queue up the mails for a retry
later. See also "EXIT CODES".
This also disables the TCP fail-over behaviour of -d.
| spamc < -- > spamd options
-d host[,host2]
--dest=host[host2]
In TCP/IP mode, connect to spamd server on host
(default: localhost).
If host resolves to multiple addresses,
spamc will fail-over to the next addresses if the
first one cannot be connected to. It will first try all addresses of each
host before tries the next host.
-x inhibits the fail-over .
| -p port
--port=port
In TCP/IP mode, connect to spamd listening on port (default: 783).
| -H
--randomize
For TCP/IP sockets, randomize the IP addresses returned for the hosts given by -d.
This provides for a simple kind of load balancing. Max tries is 3
| -U socketpath
--socket=path
Connect to "spamd" via UNIX domain socket socketpath instead of a TCP/IP connection.
This option is not supported on Win32 platforms.
| --connect-retries=r
Retry connecting to spamd r times. default 3
| --retry-sleep=s
Sleep for sleep s between attempts to connect to spamd. The default is 1 second.
| -t s
--timeout=s
Timeout for spamc-to-spamd communications (default: 600, 0 disables).
If spamd takes longer than s seconds to reply,
spamc will abort the connection and the message will be returned unprocessed!
| -s max_size
--max-size=bytes
Set the maximum message size, in bytes, which will be sent to spamd. (default: 500 000).
maximum is 256 000 000.
| -S
--ssl
--ssl=sslv
If spamc and spamd were built with support for SSL, encrypt exchanges with SSL;
sslv specifies the protocol version to use, one of
"sslv2", "sslv3", "tlsv1", or "sslv23".
default, "sslv23", causes spamc to use a SSLv2 hello
handshake then negotiate use of SSLv3 or TLSv1 protocol if the spamd server can accept it.
| -V
--version
If built with SSL support, an additional line will be included example>
SpamAssassin Client version 3.0.0-rc4
compiled with SSL support (OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004)
| -K | Perform a keep-alive check of spamd, instead of a full message check.
| -z Use gzip compression to compress the mail message sent to "spamd".
useful when spamd is not on the same system.
Requires "zlib" being installed for "spamc" , and the "Compress::Zlib" perl module for spamd
| --headers
Perform a scan and limit rewriting to the message headers.
This makes a significant reduction in bandwidth usage, since
the response from spamd will not include the body.
Only makes sense if "report_safe 0" in the scanning configuration on
the remote end; with "report_safe 1", it is likely to result in corrupt messages.
| -B
--bsmtp
Input is a single BSMTP-formatted message. Characters
between the DATA line and the "lone-dot" line are sent to spamd.
Output of spamd will be placed in the same envelope
( SIZE extensions will cause problems).
| -e command [args]
--pipe-to command [args]
pipe the output to command's standard input.
If the fork-and-exec fails mail will be lost.
If used, this must be the last command line option.
(not supported on Win32 platforms.)
