How to teach spamassassin…
Using sa-learn you can specify mailboxes to learn spam and ham from. I love this approach as it gives the customer a greater sense of being in control.
1. First you add the users spam & ham
ex. useradd spam
2. Now you edit crontab to run sa-learn every hour or however often you like
ex. crontab -e
0 * * * * sa-learn –spam –mbox /var/mail/spam
0 * * * * sa-learn –ham –mbox /var/mail/ham
Note: You may have a different path to your mail directories. /var/mail/[username] is standard usually.
3. Now tell your customer to send any emails containing spam to spam@[domainname] and send emails from common & new contacts to ham@[domainname].
Cons: If spammers catch wind of this, they could send spam to the ham address. In which case you can always add a different user such as hammerspammers@[domainname] or youllneverguessthisisforham@[domainname].
ntoskrnl.exe corrupt or missing – vista
God save you if you come across this error . I hate Vista. I’m beiginning to think Vista is a large population expirement to learn how people behave when they purchase something that blatantly refuses to work as advertised. They probably have camera’s, IR sensors, voice recognition & heartbeat analyzers installed in every Vista machine in order to determine how close one will push himself towards a heart attack before actually getting up and throwing away his computer.
CARP!
BSOD Stop 0x0000007E migrating HDD from Intel to AMD & visa versa
When migrating an existing copy of Windows XP from one machine to another, or perhaps replacing a motherboard with a new and/or different model, windows anti piracy will most likely force a blue screen of death with stop error 0x0000007e. You can usually fix this by using an xp cd to do a repair install. If the repair install blue screens after the first reboot, then you’ll probably need to disable some intel or amd drivers found in the windowssystem32drivers folder. A common trouble maker is called intelppm.sys. You can just rename the file or boot into the recovery console and type in “disable intelppm” and press enter.
